makes 12-14 muffins

Ingredients:

250g plain flour

2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

2 tbspn good quality cocoa powder

120g castor sugar (reduced from the original 170g sugar)

150g chocolate chips, plus 1/4 cup for sprinkling

80ml vegetable oil (I used canola oil)

1 egg

1 tsp vanilla extract

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 200C.

2. Put the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cocoa powder, sugar and 150g chocolate chips into a large bowl and mix well.

3. In another bowl, mix together all the wet ingredients. Add egg and mix well.

4. Mix the dry and wet ingredients together with gentle strokes, remembering that a lumpy batter makes the best muffins.

5. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cases.

6. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup chocolate chips on top and then bake for 20 minutes or until the muffins are dark, risen and springy.
