Delightful muffins that combine the comforting warmth of baked goods with the rich flavor of coffee and chocolate.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups flour
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 2½ tsp. baking powder
  • 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • ¾ cup miniature chocolate chips
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 Tbsp. instant coffee granules
  • ½ cup butter
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 4 oz. softened cream cheese, cubed
  • 1 Tbsp. sugar
  • ½ tsp. instant coffee granules
  • ½ tsp. vanilla
  • ¼ cup miniature chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt until evenly combined.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the milk, instant coffee granules, melted butter, beaten egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
  5. Gently fold in ¾ cup of miniature chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
  6. In a separate small bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, 1 Tbsp. sugar, ½ tsp. instant coffee granules, and ½ tsp. vanilla until the mixture is smooth.
  7. Spoon muffin batter into the prepared muffin tins, filling each well halfway. Add a cube of the cream cheese mixture into the center of each muffin, then top with more batter until filled three-quarters full.
  8. Sprinkle the tops with the remaining ¼ cup miniature chocolate chips.
  9. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Allow them to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for about a week.
