Instructions

Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with liners. Fill an empty cup halfway with water.
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Toss in the chocolate chunks, reserving some for topping.
In another bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, vanilla, and oil until smooth.
Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Evenly divide the batter among the 11 muffin liners, filling each about 3/4 full. Press the reserved chocolate chunks on top of each muffin.
Bake for 25–28 minutes, or until a skewer inserted comes out with moist crumbs.
Let the muffins cool in the pan for 2–3 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
Once slightly cooled, cut a small hole in the center of each muffin and remove the core.
For the ganache, microwave the chocolates and cream in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Pipe the ganache into the center of each muffin until it slightly overflows. Allow the ganache to set before serving.

Notes

Ensure not to overmix the batter to keep muffins fluffy.
You can use semi-sweet or dark chocolate for the ganache based on your preference.
These muffins are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for a few days.
