Ingredients:

• 2 eggs
• 130 g sugar
• 240 g all-purpose flour
• 5 g baking powder
• 160 ml of milk
• 100 ml vegetable oil
• Chocolate spread (enough for one teaspoon per muffin)

Method:

1. Prepare the muffin batter:
   • Preheat your oven to 180°C. Line a muffin tin with paper cases or grease the tins to prevent them from sticking.
   • In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until light and fluffy.
   • Add the milk and oil to the egg mixture and mix well until combined.
   • Sift the flour and baking powder together and gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing until well combined. Be careful not to overmix so the muffins remain light and fluffy.
2. Add the chocolate swirl:
   • Lightly heat the spread in the microwave to soften it and incorporate it more easily into the dough. This should only take a few seconds.
   • Fill each muffin cup with the batter about halfway. Then add a teaspoon of softened chocolate spread to each.
   • Using a fork, gently fold the chocolate spread into the batter, creating a marbled effect.
3. Bake the muffins:
   • Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
4. Let cool and serve:
   • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This helps them set up nicely and makes them easier to remove.

Enjoy your freshly baked Chocolate Swirl Muffins as a delicious treat that combines the simplicity of a quick muffin recipe with the indulgence of rich, creamy chocolate. Perfect with a cup of coffee or a glass of milk, these muffins are sure to please everyone who tries them!
