Fold in the chopped chocolate.
Spoon the batter into muffin cups.
Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden brown and springs to the touch.
Then can be served warm or let them cool completely.
Once cooled they can be frozen to be consumed another day.
* about 2 ½ bars (250g )of chocolate roughly chopped. Use 3 bars if you want it very chocolately

Cook’s notes: I used green and blacks cooking chocolate, its 72% cocoa so is very dark, you can use any good quality chocolate you prefer, 55% cocoa, milk, or even white chocolate. H grumped at how dark the chocolate was, but at the same time still managed to eat a huge muffin, and didn’t actually complain about the darkness of the chocolate until he was nearly finished eating it. I thought they turned out pretty good but next time I may use a lesser percentage of cocoa. I only used the 72% because it was the only chocolate in the house that M and H hadn’t devoured.
