DISCLAIMER: DEATH BY CHOCOLATE muffins

Y'all ready for this?



These are actually -- officially -- you heard it here first -- the most indulgent muffins that will ever touch your lips. I went for a 6km run after a few bites. Seriously. You have been warned. If you're a risk taker like me you'll make these with reckless abandon in the weekend ---

1 1/2 c self raising flour
1 c dark brown sugar
250 g dark chocolate, chopped
125 g butter
1/4 c cocoa
300ml sour cream (yes, sour cream, this is not a typo and trust me on this one -- delish)
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla essence
2 packets of Rolo's, or equivalent chocolate covered caramel sweets (I used Mars bars)
1/4 c sifted cocoa
  1. Preheat oven to moderate, 180ÂșC. 
  2. Line muffin pans with paper cases (I used metallic gold cases -- so pretty with the deep dark chocolate mixture...)
  3. Sift flour into large bowl, and stir in sugar
  4. Melt chocolate and butter. Stir in cocoa and cool for 5 minutes
  5. Whisk sour cream, vanilla and eggs
  6. Stir in chocolate and sour cream mixture is just combined
  7. 1/2 fill each muffin case. Place two Rolos or a slice of Mars bar into the centre of each. Spoon the remaining mixture to 2/3 fill each hole. Bake for 15-20 minutes
