The minute I saw this in my inbox, I threw my healthiness out the window. This muffin was made to be enjoyed in its oozy gooey sinful form. So with a giggle, I bought some white self rising flour & the rest of the sweet ingredients.
I really felt like a mad scientist putting this concoction together. Sure it was a little more time consuming than most recipes I’ve done so far, but who would complain about chopping up chocolates? Not me for sure!
What I pulled out of the oven was a golden brown, sticky, & saccharine treat. Moist, a bit dense of course, with the walnuts, marshmallows, and chocolate proving that this isn’t just reserved for its ice cream counterpart.
