  • 100 g powdered sugar
  • 100 g semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 12 teaspoons chocolate spread (like Nutella)
  • 10 cl milk (about 1/3 cup + 1 tbsp)
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract

  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and powdered sugar until pale and thickened.
  4. Slowly add the melted butter while whisking continuously.
  5. In a separate bowl, mix the yogurt and milk until smooth, then combine with the egg mixture.
  6. Add the flour, baking powder, and salt to the wet ingredients and gently fold until no dry flour remains.
  7. Fold in the chocolate chips and vanilla extract until just combined.

Notes

These muffins are best enjoyed the day they are baked, but they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For freezing, wrap each cooled muffin tightly in plastic wrap and store in a freezer-safe bag or container for up to 2 months. To serve, reheat frozen muffins in the microwave for 15 seconds to restore the gooey center. Feel free to substitute yogurt with sour cream or buttermilk, and use peanut butter or a dairy-free alternative if desired.
