Orange and Chocolate Chip Muffins Recipe

Oh dear......it's been a while.  But to get back into the swing of things, I have made some Orange and Chocolate Chip Muffins.

I made 3 different sizes, so the baby could have his own mini portion, but as you will see from the pictures below he went for the biggest one!

This is from an Annabel Karmel recipe book and is really easy to make:

4oz Self raising flour
2 tbsp Cocoa powder
4oz Margarine
4oz Caster Sugar
2 eggs
Grated zest of 1 small orange
2oz Plain chocolate chips

1.Preheat oven to 180 degrees C or Gas Mark 4
2.Cream the margarine and sugar together.
3.Add the eggs to the creamed mixture, a little at a time, together with a tablespoon of flour.
4.Sift the flour and cocoa.
5.Mix in the flour and cocoa until blended.
6.Stir in the orange zest and chocolate chips
7.Line muffin tray with paper cases, fill each case until 2/3 full.
8.Cook for 10-12 mins
