How to Make Chocolate Chip Muffins

• Grate the chocolate.
• Sieve flour and baking powder together. Mix the grated chocolate with the flour and keep aside.
• Cream together butter and sugar.
• Now add 1 egg at a time to the butter - sugar mixture and keep beating till all the eggs are used up.
• Now add the flour mixture to the above mixture and fold with a wooden spoon or spatula. (Do not use a beater or a mixer as the chocolate in the flour will melt due to excessive beating).
• Put this cake mixture into paper bags and pipe into greased muffin trays.
• Bake at 180 degree Celsius in a preheated oven for 15 - 20 minutes.
• To check if the muffin is cooked insert a toothpick in the centre of the muffin. If it comes out clean, the muffins are ready. The muffins will also give a very nice aroma and be brown on top.
