Choc brownie muffins (english)

Versión Española

Again: chocolate, chocolate, chocolate! Thanks to Aida that brings to this blog healthy recipes. If it was for me, this blog should be called "With the hands in the chocolate"! I can't avoid it...

I had already included some other recipes of chocolate muffins in this blog. This one is different from the others because not very usual ingredients are used (Nutella, sour cream...) and because I added a mix of different nuts to the dough (the original recipe includes pistachios instead). They are really tasty, soft and not too sweet!

4 teaspoons raising powder
35g cocoa powder + extra for dusting (optional)

165g Nutella
1 egg, beaten lightly

  • Take care not to overcook the muffins, they should be slightly moist in the middle.
  • Dust with sifted extra cocoa, if desired.

Comments:

As said, the original recipe was with pistachios. I used a nut mix because I had lots of nuts at home and I had to used them, but I am sure that with pistachios must be delicious!
