Ingredients

Scale

⅔ cup (113g) bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, coarsely chopped, plus more for topping
½ cup (113 g) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
⅓ cup + 1 tablespoon (55g) all-purpose flour
⅓ cup (35g) unsweetened cocoa powder (Dutch-process)
⅛ teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar


Instructions

Preheat oven to 350F/180C. Line 12 muffin cups with liners. Set aside.
In a medium heatproof bowl, combine chocolate and butter. Heat in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth. Alternatively, melt over a saucepan of simmering water, stirring occasionally.
Sift together flour, cocoa powder, and salt in a small bowl; set aside.
In a separate bowl, use an electric mixer to whisk eggs and sugar until thick and pale, about 4 minutes. Reduce mixer speed to low and gradually mix in the melted chocolate. Stop the mixer and gently fold in the flour mixture using a rubber spatula just until combined. Avoid overmixing.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full. Sprinkle additional chopped chocolate on top, if desired.
Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs. Do not overbake. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then remove muffins and let cool completely on the rack.
