Cocoa muffins are a good alternative to chocolate muffins because they are obviously easier and cheaper to make. To taste - I won't say much worse than melted chocolate dough, in structure - check it out for yourself, in my opinion - a cool structure. These cocoa muffins are not wet, but dry, i.e. good for any extra pampering like whipped cream, cream tops, or marmalade layers. But I want to show them with cocoa décor, which gives them a particularly original look. However, I warn you: cocoa sprinkling is not for everybody! Moreover, for an ADULT amateur - children will almost certainly not appreciate it, because cocoa itself, without sugar, is bitter.

Ingredients for 12 LARGE cuffs: 220 gr. flour, 4 eggs, at least 140 gr. granulated sugar (more - you can, less - not worth it), 1 sachet vanilla sugar, 50 gr. butter, 50 ml milk, 1 sachet (15 g) baking powder, 6 tbsp. cocoa for the dough and one incomplete for sprinkling.

Cut the butter into cubes with a side of about 1 cm.

Beat the eggs with sand and vanilla sugar into a white foam, gradually increasing the mixer speed from low to high. Beat for 5 minutes.

We sift flour, baking powder, cocoa into this business, pour out the milk and throw the butter into cubes.

Stir everything with a mixer until a uniformly colored dough is obtained.

We lay out on muffin cuffs somewhere on a tablespoon with a slide. In principle, it is possible to bake without a mold.

We bake in the oven at a medium level at a temperature of 180 degrees for 25-30 minutes, until sampled with a dry toothpick. If you want to make a sprinkling of cocoa, then you need to wait until the unevenness of the dough has already smoothed out and domes are formed (this is 10 minutes after the beginning of baking). In this case, the dough tears under the dressing with very decorative cracks.

We remove the muffins with cocoa from the oven, wait until it cools. Well, I also pick them out of the cuffs so that eaters don't litter at the table by doing it themselves.

Bon appetit to all shokomani!

Step by step preparation of classic chocolate muffins:

1. Pre-turn on the oven and heat up to 190 degrees.
2. In a separate container, mix dry ingredients - flour, sugar, baking powder, cocoa and vanillin.
3. Then, in another deep plate, lightly melt the butter in a steam bath or in the microwave. We add refined vegetable oil and eggs to it. Mix the resulting mass thoroughly.
4. Next, we start mixing both parts. We recommend doing this with a whisk or a regular fork. Using a mixer or blender is highly discouraged. The presence of small lumps in the resulting dough is allowed, this will only benefit the finished dessert.
5. We take the most suitable forms for baking and grease them with oil. We fill with dough for a third of the volume. Sometimes half filling is allowed. However, it should be borne in mind that during baking, the dough rises and may flow out of the mold.
6. We bake this dish for 20 minutes. After that, let it cool slightly and serve.
