Chocolate Muffins

Description

Homemade baked goods for tea. The cocoa for muffins should be of good quality. Instead of chocolate chips, you can use a bar of dark chocolate, finely chopped with a knife. The nut and chocolate filling can be divided between two portions of the batter. Once the muffins have cooled, dust them with powdered sugar or drizzle with icing. The baked goods are ready. Serve at the table.
