Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 box devil's food cake mix
- 2 teaspoons instant coffee granules
- 1 cup hot water
- 0.3333 cup vegetable oil
- 3 whole eggs
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup dark chocolate chunks (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease them lightly.
In a small bowl, dissolve the instant coffee granules in the hot water. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the devil's food cake mix, vegetable oil, eggs, and sour cream. Mix until all ingredients are just combined and the batter is smooth.
Stir in the cooled coffee mixture until fully incorporated.
Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and dark chocolate chunks (if using). Be careful not to overmix.
Divide the batter equally among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out with just a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy the rich chocolatey goodness!
