Double Chocolate Easter Muffins
Ingredients
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400F
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking soda, salt and cocoa powder, set aside.
In a medium bowl, cream eggs and brown sugar together until smooth. Add milk, yogurt and vegetable oil.
Pour wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined, about twelve times. Fold in the smarties.
Spray the muffin cups with cooking spray - or use vegetable oil to grease them. Divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups using a 1/3 measure, and place in the oven
After 5 minutes, turn down the oven temperature to 375 and bake for another 20min
Once baked, let cool in the muffin tray for 5 minutes, and then on a cooling rack until completely cool.
When you are ready to serve, turn oven to broil setting and place the muffins on a baking tray. Put one marshmallow on each muffin and broil for one minute. Take the muffins out of the oven and gently push down on the marshmallow with a spoon. Place a KitKat Easter bunny on top and serve.
Tips
Checking for doneness
Insert a toothpick into a muffin, if it comes out clean, they are ready!
Broil Alternative
If your oven doesn’t have a broil setting, leave the muffins and marshmallows in a warm oven until the marshmallow softens
