Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, divided
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon instant coffee granules
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon, divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
  • 2 (1-ounce) squares baking chocolate, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup miniature chocolate chips

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375˚F. Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.


Combine the flour, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, coffee, 1 teaspoon cinnamon and the salt in a large mixing bowl.


In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, egg, butter, chocolate and vanilla until incorporated, about 2 minutes. Stir into the dry ingredients. Fold in the chocolate chips. Stir until moistened, about 1 minute.


Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full. Bake for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before moving muffins to a wire rack.


Mix the remaining granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl until incorporated. Sprinkle over the muffins while still warm.\
