Chocolate Muffins

How to prepare chocolate muffins

1. Mix the cocoa with brown sugar and cornstarch until you get a uniform color. Add the coffee and water and mix. Put the pan on the heat and when it starts to thicken, reduce the heat and cook, stirring constantly, until you get a lava-like consistency (when you drag a spoon across the bottom of the pan, traces remain that slowly cover up - see photo 1).
2. Remove from heat and add the chocolate broken into pieces. Stir quickly until melted. Add the butter cut into cubes (in 4-5 batches; after each batch stir until the butter is melted).
3. Add the oil and stir.
4. Add one egg at a time, stirring after each until no traces of yolk are visible.
5. Add the sugar and vanilla sugar and stir again.
7. Finally add the flour sifted with baking powder. Mix until smooth.
8. Put the batter in a muffin tin lined with muffin papers. Fill only 3/4 of the papers, because the muffins will rise during baking.
9. Bake at 180°C for 20 minutes.
