Step 1

Prepare the Chocolate Philadelphia

Start by placing the Chocolate Philadelphia into a pastry bag. If you don’t have a pastry bag, you can use a tablespoon to scoop it out later.

Step 2

Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Give it a good stir to ensure everything is mixed well.

Step 3

Combine Wet Ingredients

In another bowl, whisk together the egg, sugar, vegetable oil, and warm milk until the mixture is smooth. This will help create a light and fluffy texture for your muffins.

Step 4

Combine Mixtures

Quickly add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture and stir until just combined. A few lumps are okay—do not overmix!

Step 5

Add Chopped Chocolate

Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and fold it into the batter. This will add delicious chunks of chocolate in every bite!

Step 6

Fill the Muffin Molds

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Fill your muffin cups halfway with the batter. Then, squeeze in some Chocolate Philadelphia in the center and top with more batter.

Step 7

Bake the Muffins

Place the filled muffin molds into the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes. Check for doneness with a toothpick—if it comes out clean, they are ready!

Step 8

Cool and Serve

Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool slightly. Enjoy your delicious Chocolate Philadelphia muffins warm or at room temperature!

Variations

Want to make it gluten-free or vegan? 🌱✨ No worries! To make these muffins gluten-free, simply substitute regular flour with a 1:1 gluten-free baking blend.

For the creamy filling, find a vegan cream cheese alternative — it's just as delicious! You'll satisfy everyone's cravings while keeping it friendly for all diets!

Faq

  • What should I do if my muffins are too dry?

    If your muffins come out too dry, check that you're not overmixing the batter and ensure to measure the oil and milk accurately. Consider adding a pinch more milk for added moisture!

  • Can I make this recipe ahead of time?

    Absolutely! You can prepare the batter a day in advance and store it in the fridge. Just make sure to bake them fresh when ready to enjoy!

  • How can I get my muffins to rise better?

    Ensure your baking powder is fresh and active. Also, be careful not to overmix, as that can cause your muffins to lose their fluffy structure.

  • Can I use other fillings besides chocolate cream?

    Of course! Try using almond butter, fruit preserves, or even a dollop of Nutella for a twist on flavor!

  • What's the best way to store leftover muffins?

    Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days. For longer freshness, you can freeze them—just make sure they're completely cool before freezing!

  • How can I tell when my muffins are done baking?

    Insert a toothpick in the center—if it comes out clean or with a few crumbs attached, they’re ready! Keep an eye on them towards the end of baking time.
