Nigella Lawson - Chocolate Chip Muffins

As you probably know I'm not usually a one for baking cakes; why? Simply because I can't do baking, I am useless at it and so I need all the help I can get.

But with that said I did once excel myself in making Dulce de Leche Filled Muffins 😉

Of course, a good muffin/cupcake tin will ensure your muffins cook evenly and this Hard Anodised Cupcake Tin from Stellar Cookware is the very thing. It doesn't warp like some cheaper muffins tins will.

This tin is a sturdy and professional piece of bakeware (and by the way it makes a good job of Yorkshire puddings too).

I'm really pleased with the results which means me and this Stellar cupcake tin are now best buddies in the kitchen.

The tin holds twelve muffins but my recipe only made ten.

How to Stop Chocolate Chips Sinking

When adding chocolate chips or raisins and the like, to any cake mix add them to the flour and mix to coat before adding the wet ingredients; this stops them sinking to the bottom of your muffins - how very marvellous!
