for a very sweet treat

 FUDGE MUFFINS

INGREDIENTS:
  • 1.5 cups flour
  • 4 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 6 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 egg
  • 5 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 cup fudge candy (chopped)

  • 1 bar dark chocolate (100g)
  • 0.3 bar white chocolate (30g)
  • 1 tablespoon heavy cream



INSTRUCTIONS:
1. In one bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Whisk together the liquid 
ingredients in another separate bowl.
2. Add the liquid ingredients to the dry ones and stir until roughly combined.
3. Fill paper liners with half of the batter and put about two thirds of the 
fudge onto it. Cover up with the rest of the batter.

BAKE:   17 min.    170° C

4. In a double boiler melt both kinds of chocolate (separately). Add the 
heavy cream to the dark one.
5. Top the muffins with the dark chocolate and garnish them with the 
white one and the rest of the fudge.

Note: I put the white chocolate in a pastry bag with a very narrow tip and 
pipe 3 circles on each muffin: the smallest one in the center and the biggest 
one near the edge. Using a toothpick, I lightly pulled the white chocolate in 
four times and out four times (as if to draw two crosses).
