Chocolate cherry muffins



Makes 12

Ingredients
1 quantity Basic muffin mix (see related recipe)
4 x 55g Cherry Ripe chocolate bars, roughly chopped
100g glace cherries, chopped
Chocolate sauce
100g good-quality dark chocolate
1/2 cup pouring cream

Method
Preheat oven to 180°C. Lightly grease a 12-hole, 1/3-cup capacity non-stick muffin pan.
Follow step 2 for making Basic muffin mix (see related recipe), omitting coffee and adding
Cherry Ripe and cherries to the flour.
Follow step 3 for making Cappuccino muffins (see related recipe), reducing cooking time to 20 minutes.

Make chocolate sauce: Place chocolate and cream in a heatproof, microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on medium (50%), stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes or until melted and smooth. Allow sauce to cool slightly. Drizzle over muffins and serve.

Notes & tips
Muffins freeze well in snap-lock bags, but are best eaten on the day they are made.
