About This Recipe
In previous blog posts, I posted banana and pear muffins recipes in detail. This time I went for a chocolate muffin with Nutella. The muffin is actually a small quick bread with a firmer texture than cake and is baked at a higher temperature. Due to the higher temperature, it is not uncommon for the muffin surface to crack.
