Small-Batch Mushroom-Shaped Chocolate Muffins
蘑菇造型朱古力鬆餅
A small batch of chocolate batter makes one large mushroom-shaped cake or about three small muffins.
▶ Watch the recipe
Before you begin
Dark chocolate and cocoa flavour the batter without any mushroom ingredient. Deep moulds need longer than ordinary muffin wells. Check the thickest part before unmoulding.
Method 做法
Melt and mix
Gently melt the butter and chocolate together. Mix in the milk, then add the measured egg once the mixture is no longer hot. Whisk in both sugars.

Fold in the flour
Sift the cake flour, cocoa and baking powder into the bowl. Fold gently until the batter is evenly chocolate-coloured, scraping the base of the bowl.

Fill, bake and release
Spoon into the prepared mushroom mould or small muffin cups. Bake in a preheated oven at 170°C (338°F). The larger mould shown, about 10 × 5 cm, took 35 minutes. For small cups, begin checking around 25 minutes. Cool enough to handle before unmoulding.
