Mint Chocolate Chip Chocolate Muffins

So rich. So good. 

There's really nothing else I can say about these muffins. I adapted this recipe from Sally Baking Addiction's Double Chocolate Muffins so you know it's a good one. My only regret is that I made a small batch. Don't be like me, double the recipe below; you deserve it.

Mint Chocolate Chip Chocolate Muffins

Yield 7-8 muffins

Ingredients 

1 cup (125 grams) flour 

1/2 cup brown sugar 

1/4 cup cocoa powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt 

3/4 cup mint chocolate chips 

1 egg

1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons yogurt

1/4 cup milk 

1/4 cup oil 

1/2 teaspoon vanilla 

Directions 

Line a muffin pan with muffin liners or grease well. Preheat oven to 425 F. 

Whisk flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, salt, and mint chocolate chips. In a separate bowl whisk egg, yogurt, milk, oil, and vanilla. 

Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until no dry streaks remain. Scoop the batter into the muffin wells.  You can reserve some mint chocolate chips to sprinkle on top at this point. 

Bake for 5 minutes then lower the oven temperature to 350 F and bake for another 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the centre of a muffin comes out clean.
