Double Chocolate muffins

 

Hi! I decided to bake some muffins today, so I pulled out a dessert cookbook called Simply Chocolate. I found a double chocolate muffin recipe, and I'm a sucker for chocolate so I just had to. 

I followed most of the recipe, but since I did not have enough regular flour, I had to substitute it and adjust the recipe. Here's what I did:

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter

3/4 cup cane sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar

4 eggs

2/3 cup sour cream

12 Tbsp milk

1/2 cup regular flour + 1 cup coconut flour + 1/2 cup almond flour

1 tsp baking soda

2 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa

1 cup dark chocolate chips

NOTE: If anyone is interested, the original recipe's only difference was 2 eggs instead of 4, 5 Tbsp milk instead of 12, and 2 cups regular flour.

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees (If you're slow, like me, to put the recipe together, you can wait on this)

Put the butter and sugar into an electric mixer to blend

Beat the eggs, sour cream, and milk into it.

In a separate bowl, sift flour, baking soda, and cocoa and stir.

Mix powder and liquid with an electric mixer

Stir in chocolate chips

Pour batter into muffin pan (don't forget to line them with cupcake liners)

Put muffins into the oven after it is preheated and bake 25-30 minutes

Take out and enjoy

By the way, even with the weird flour, the muffins were amazing. No matter which way you make it, you have to try these! Yum.

Another Great Book of Life Song!

This song always gets to me! It is so beautiful.

I love this song too much! Haha! It goes through my head every day. I recently watched the Book of Life, by the way! It is really cute.

Writing

 Sorry, I know that I haven't written in a while, but I realized that I haven't told you that I am writing a novel. Well, two of them, actually. I started working on my paranormal novel a year ago, and I completed my first draft of the whole book. I started making some major changes to it, which isn't the most fun part of the process. 

That's why I decided to start working on a superhero novel with my sister a few weeks ago. We have come up with most of the characters and plot, by now. I'm having trouble with writing the opening of the book, though. We planned for me to write one main character and my sister to write the other as the points of view switch back and forth, and my character, Avery Beckett, is the first point of view that you are introduced to in it.

 It is nice working on a project that my sister and I share because then we can bounce ideas off of each other. My sister had helped me with my paranormal book, but it was mostly my project. 

Speaking of writing, I recently talked to my grandma and asked her if I could read her book because my mom had told me that she had edited her mom's book. She said that she had thrown her story away because she didn't think that it was good enough. I don't think that she should've thrown it away no matter how bad it was. I asked her if she could tell me her story ideas, but she hasn't replied back yet.

Anyway, to anyone that aspires to be an author or just enjoys writing, keep going! It is a hard process, and I have thought about giving up, but I won't.

Talk to you later!
