Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams all-purpose flour
- 40 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 150 grams granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 100 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 120 milliliters milk
- 80 milliliters vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 200 grams cream cheese
- 50 grams confectioners' sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract (for filling)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to combine.
Stir in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and egg until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Do not overmix; some small lumps are fine.
In a medium bowl, beat together the cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, and 0.5 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. This will be the cheesecake filling.
Spoon a tablespoon of the chocolate muffin batter into each muffin cup, making sure the bottom is covered.
Add a teaspoon of the cheesecake filling to the center of each muffin cup, then top with another tablespoon of the chocolate muffin batter, ensuring the filling is fully covered.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the muffins are firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted into the chocolate portion comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your rich, decadent Double Chocolate Cheesecake Muffins New Zealand style!
