Chocolate Oreo Muffins

Our cake box had run dry so it was time to fill it back up again. I'd stocked up on eggs yesterday so I was ready to go. I decided to make chocolate muffins but upon checking the cupboard realised I was out of cocoa powder so it was time to improvise again using some other chocolate products that I did have in the cupboard.

Chocolate Oreo Muffins.

150g Dark Muscovado sugar
150ml sunflower oil
100g dark chocolate
4 tbsp yoghurt (I used vanilla)
3 Eggs
300g Self Raising flour
12 Chocolate Oreos
40g Chocolate spread

• Heat the sugar and oil in a pan over a low heat until the sugar starts to dissolve
• Remove from heat & stir in the chocolate, until it has melted, allow to cool
• Beat in the yoghurt and eggs
• Stir in the flour until just combined
• Spoon into the cupcake cases to about 1/3 full (I did it to half full but I think 1/3 would be better)
• Place an Oreo on top and then 1/2 tsp chocolate spread
• Fill with remaining muffin batter
• Bake in a 180 degree (C) oven for 15-18 minutes
