Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/2 cup butter -- (1 stick)
5 ounces semisweet chocolate -- coarsely chopped
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
2/3 cup buttermilk
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chunks -- (6 ounces)
1/2 cup white chocolate chips -- (96 grams)
(Note: I used Nestle semi-sweet and white chocolate chips)
(Note: You can use 1 tsp instant espresso powder in place of the
vanilla extract)
Preheat oven to 350F. Prep a muffin pan. Joy's recipe says it yields
12 muffins, but I must have made mine a bit smaller and got 16 muffins.
Create a double boiler (place some water in a saucepan and bring to a
simmer) and place the butter (chopped into about 8 pieces) and 5
ounces of chocolate into a heatproof bowl over the simmering water.
Don't let the bowl touch the water. Melt the butter and chocolate
together, stirring together. Once melted, remove and set aside to
cool a bit while you mix the rest of the ingredients.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking
powder, soda, salt.
Whisk the brown sugar into the chocolate mixture. Follow with the
eggs, buttermilk, vanilla. Add the flour mixture all at once and fold
together. Don't overmix. Add the chocolate chunks.
Dish into muffin tin. Bake for 18-20 minutes - until a toothpick
comes out clean. Remove from pan after 5 minutes and place muffins on
wire rack to cool completely.
When the muffins are cool (or as long as you can wait), melt the
white chocolate like you did the semi-sweet chocolate. Note that
white chocolate melts at a lower temperature. Once melted, have fun
drizzling it over the muffins.
