Indulge in the decadent delight of Chocolate and Nutella Surprise Muffins, the perfect fusion of rich cocoa flavors and a gooey Nutella center that will leave you craving more. These moist and fluffy treats are made with a harmonious blend of all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and a touch of brown sugar for added depth. What sets them apart is the delightful surprise—a luscious dollop of Nutella hidden within each muffin, melting into a creamy pocket as they bake. Perfectly finished in just 35 minutes, they’re easy to prepare and even easier to devour. Whether you enjoy them warm with coffee or as a sweet snack on the go, these delightful muffins are sure to satisfy your chocolate cravings. Bake them for breakfast, brunch, or dessert, and don’t forget to add chocolate chips for an extra indulgent touch.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to combine.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and eggs until smooth.
Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
If using chocolate chips, fold them into the batter at this stage.
Fill each muffin cup about halfway with the batter. Then add a heaping teaspoon of Nutella into the center of each cup.
Top off each muffin with the remaining batter, ensuring the Nutella is fully covered.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the muffin (avoiding the Nutella center) comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy the delightful surprise center!
