I have never eaten at Perkins but these are great chocolate muffins.
Ingredients
- 6 squares (1 oz. each) semi-sweet chocolate
- 1/3 cup lightly salted butter
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Directions
Preheat oven to 400. Grease 12 3 X 1 1/4 in muffin cups.
In a small saucepan, melt chocolate with butter over low heat. Let stand 10 minutes, or until cooled.
In a small bowl, stir chocolate mixture with buttermilk, sugar, egg and vanilla until blended. In a large bowl, stir together flour, baking soda and salt. Make a well in center of dry ingredients; add chocolate mixture and stir just to combine. Stir in chips.
Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups; bake 20-25 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted in center of one muffin comes out clean.
Remove muffin tin or tins to wire rack. Cool 5 minutes before removing muffins from cups; finish cooling on rack. Serve warm or cool completely and store in an airtight container at room temperature. These muffins freeze well.
