Method

  • step 1

    In a mixer using the blade attachment, cream together the butter and sugar. Add the eggs, one at a time, and mix for 4 mins. Add the flour, baking powder and milk, and mix for a further 4 mins on slow, then mix in the chocolate.

  • step 2

    Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Cut 16 squares of baking parchment big enough to act as cases for the holes of your muffin tins. Using a piping bag or a spoon, fill the muffin cases with the mixture. When all the cases are filled, share the cherries equally between the muffins, pushing them into the mixture as you go. Bake for 25 mins, then serve warm or cold.

Horrid waste of ingredients! As i was making this i was thinking surely not so much butter! Each muffin was sitting in a pool of grease, the muffins shot through with holes like an English muffin. I kept thinking there must be an erratum somewhere but no. I measured everything on a proper scale.…

Made them and they were absolutely gorgeous, will do again for sure!

Made these today! Far too much butter. It came through the cases and made the muffins crispy throughout. It certainly doesn't need 25 minutes in the oven at 200oC either! The first burnt after 20mins. The second batch were in 15mins and were better but still oozed butter everywhere. Disappointing…

I have been searching for ages to find Morello cherries without success and then found them in Lidl! So worth making a detour to find them!

Last time I baked cakes of any kind was with my Grandma about 20 years ago, if not more! This is the first time I have baked muffins, they were so easy to do and everyone loved them...Will be doing again, especially as I have a large jar of cherries to use up!
