Chocolate Chocolate Muffins

Chocolate Chocolate Muffins

• 1 cup all-purpose flour

• ½ cup granulated sugar

• 6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (preferably "special dark")

• ½ tablespoon espresso powder

• ½ teaspoon salt

• ½ teaspoon baking soda

• 2 eggs

• 6 tablespoons heavy whipping cream

• ¼ cup sour cream

• ¼ cup oil

• 1 teaspoon vanilla

• ½ cup semi sweet chocolate chips

• 1 tablespoon coarse sparkling sugar

Preheat the oven to 350 and line a muffin pan with 12 liners.

In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, espresso powder, salt and baking soda. Add the eggs, heavy cream, sour cream, oil and vanilla and whisk vigorously until well combined; batter will be very thick. Stir in the chocolate chips.

Divide the batter between the liners and sprinkle the top of the batter with the sparkling sugar. Bake for 17-20 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Transfer muffins to a wire rack, cool for 5 minutes and serve warm with lemon curd or your favorite jam.

Yields 12 muffins.
