Here is my version of raspberry and chocolate muffins, as discussed in yesterday's post. You could use any type of chocolate, but I chose white chocolate because I think raspberries and white chocolate are a match made in heaven. If you use fresh raspberries rather than frozen, stir them in very gently. You may also need to reduce cooking time slightly.Ingredients
2 cups self-raising flour
2/3 cup caster sugar
60 g (2 oz) melted butter
3/4 cup (180 ml) milk
1 egg, lightly beaten
200 g block white chocolate (about 7 oz)
about 200g frozen raspberries (I always put in extra)
1. Line a 12 hole muffin pan with paper muffin cases. These muffins are moist and the fruit sticky, and using muffin cases will save you quite a lot of mess. Preheat oven to hot (about 200C or 400F, depending on your oven).
2. Sift flour and sugar into a large bowl.
3. Chop up chocolate into chunks. Part of the charm of these muffins is the irregular chunks of chocolate, so don't worry if your chunks are all different sizes. Stir the chocolate through the flour and sugar mixture.
Whisk melted butter, milk and egg in a separate small bowl.
Add wet ingredients to the dry ones and stir until only just combined.
Finally, gently stir in the raspberries.
Spoon into muffin papers and bake for about 20 minutes, until a knife inserted comes out clean.
Enjoy!

Pardon me while I wipe the drool off the keyboard....
Oh yum!!!
Do you think I should put your blog on 'ignore' while I finish my diet??! ;P
Wow! I must try this soon. I've sort of beat my muffin habit, so I'm predicting a fall off the wagon! Oh well!
Oh my..oh my! I think I'm drooling like everyone else. I just love that combination and I just love white chocolate....
Your muffins, of course, would be so much yummier Kate. Dh often contemplates the idea of a coffee van like that...but the idea of working all weekend stops him dead in his tracks.
He's satisfied to sell the coffee to the man who makes it in his van instead. I tell ya, those guys sell HEAPS of coffee ~ you're not alone in being a sucker for that nice smell!
O M G.
They look soooooo yummy!
Well, I have less than a month to go on my Year Without Chocolate. Then maybe, just maybe, I might take advantage of your truly EVIL looking recipe :-)
Yummy! They certainly look like a great improvement on the bought one. Through and through flavour. I'll pass the recipe on to my girls, they're the muffin cooks in my family.
I'm grocery shopping tomorrow and I'm definitely buying the ingredients for this recipe. MMmmm!
Glad you're all feeling better. Wendy xxx
Oh, those look WONDERFUL! I can taste them from here...lol. Thanks for sharing!
Yum! I wish I had one of your muffins right now...along with a good cup of coffee.
These sound amazing. Thanks for entering the Make it From Scratch Carnival!
