Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1 tablespoon red food coloring
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a muffin tin.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs, buttermilk, red food coloring, and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about halfway.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still soft.
  9. Let cool for a few minutes before serving, allowing the lava center to flow out when you cut into them.

Notes

  • For an extra chocolatey flavor, use dark chocolate chips.
  • Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful contrast.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
