I wanted to bake something very quick and simple to satisfy my chocolate cravings. (The truth is I wanted to bake to post in my blog). So I was going through my recipe collection and found this recipe for Chocolate and Nuts Muffins by Mandira of Ahaar. The first things I look in a recipe are its ingredients. I at least should have the main ingredients to proceed with the recipe, nuts and other decorating stuff are optional. I try to modify the original recipe if I’m short of any of the additional stuff. In this case, I added mini chocolate chips instead of raisins, Dutch processed cocoa instead of bittersweet chocolate and omitted almonds. I also check the comments section to get an idea what other people are telling about the recipe. If there is a lot of positive feedback I proceed with the recipe. The comments for this showed that 5 of them had tried this one and it had come out very well. So I knew this was the one and followed the recipe as it is. Click here. Read the rest of this entry »
