Ingredients

For the Muffins

  • 150 g Vegetable Oil
  • 150 g Whole Milk
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 275 g Self-Raising Flour
  • 175 g Light Brown Sugar
  • 150 g Fudge Pieces
  • 30 g Cocoa Powder

For the Ganache

  • 200 g Dark Chocolate
  • 100 g Double Cream

For the Decoration

  • 12 Mini Millionaire Shortbread Bites

Instructions

To Make the Muffins

  • Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan. Line a muffin tray with your muffin liners and leave to one side.
  • Add the oil, whole milk, eggs and vanilla to a large bowl or jug and whisk until they are all combined. Leave to one side.
  • In a separate bowl add the flour and sugar and mix until fully combined.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and whisk until the mixture is smooth and combined.
  • Fold through the fudge pieces until they are evenly distributed.
  • Split the mixture evenly into two bowls.
  • Add the cocoa powder to one bowl and mix until completely incorporated.
  • Add a teaspoon of chocolate mixture into the bottom of each case and then add in the caramel mixture. Repeat until you have used up all the muffin batter.
  • Now using a skewer gently swirl the two batters together. We don't want to mix them completely just to swirl the two batters around to get a lovely marble effect.
  • Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes. Once they have baked leave them to cool fully in the muffin tray.

To Make the Ganache

  • Gently warm the cream in the microwave on 20-second bursts until it is steaming. We want it to be warm enough to melt the chocolate but not too warm that it is boiling.
  • Add the chocolate to a separate bowl and pour the cream over the top. Leave for 5 minutes.
  • After 5 minutes stir the mixture. The chocolate should be completely melted and smooth. If it isn't put the chocolate ganache back into the microwave for 20 seconds and then mix again. Repeat until the chocolate is completely melted.
  • Put the chocolate ganache into the fridge and stir every 5-10 minutes until it is a spreadable consistency.

To Decorate

  • Once the muffins are completely cool add a spoonful of the ganache to the top of the muffins and then finish with a Millionaire Shortbread Bite.

Notes

  • These Millionaires Muffins will last 3+ days in an airtight container.
