Walnut mocha mini muffins


After discovering the joys of my new silicon mini-muffin pan when I made Christmassy mini-muffins, I couldn't wait to make some more!  This time I made double chocolate muffins with walnuts, chunks of dark chocolate and coffee.  I'm taking them to work tomorrow to help us all through an all-day meeting!

Ingredients
200g self-raising flour
50g cocoa powder
50g ground walnuts
200g caster sugar
½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
2 eggs
150ml sunflower oil
150ml milk
2 tbsp Camp coffee essence
1 tsp vanilla essence
200g dark chocolate, chopped
75g chopped walnuts

Method
  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C.  Place 42 mini-muffin cases in tins.
  2. Measure your dry ingredients (flour, cocoa, ground walnuts, sugar, baking powder and salt) by sifting them into your weighing scales.  Mix well together.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, add the eggs, oil and milk, coffee and vanilla essence and beat well.
  4. Sift the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and use a large metal spoon to fold the ingredients together.
  5. Fold in the chopped chocolate and walnuts.
  6. Carefully spoon the mixture into the muffin cases and bake for 15-20 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean.
