Chocolate Muffins

Here is a classic recipe for delicious chocolate muffins:

Ingredients

• 250 g of flour
• 2 teaspoons of baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
• 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder
• 150 g of sugar
• 1 packet of vanillin
• 2 eggs

2. In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and cocoa powder.
3. Add sugar and vanillin and mix to combine the dry ingredients.
4. In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add the oil and milk and mix well.

8. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Curiosity
