Chocolate muffins with cherries
Description
The recipe won't take much time. The muffins turn out airy because we whisk the eggs with sugar and butter in a mixer until foamy. You can use fresh or frozen cherries, just be sure to remove the pits beforehand. I add a vanilla‑bean liqueur to the batter. Any strong, aromatic alcohol will do, according to your choice. The bake is ready. Serve at the table.
