Ingredients

200gself-raising flour
125gcaster sugar
Pinch ofsalt
1½ tbspmatcha powder, plus extra for dusting
1 largeegg
65mlvegetable oil
125mlwhole milk
75gLindt White Chocolate with a Touch of Vanilla, roughly chopped, plus 50g melted, for drizzling

Method

Preheat the oven to 170°C/150°C Fan/Gas 3. Line a muffin tin with 8 larger muffin cases or 10 small paper cases and set aside.

Whisk the flour, sugar, salt and matcha powder together in a large bowl.

Add in the egg, oil and milk and mix until you have a smooth batter.

Fold in 50g of the chopped chocolate — taking care not to overmix — ensuring the chocolate is evenly distributed throughout.

Fill the muffin cases so they’re three-quarters full and sprinkle the remaining 25g of chopped chocolate on top. Bake for 20–25 minutes until a skewer inserted into the middle of the muffins comes out clean.

Leave to cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to finish cooling completely. Finish with a drizzle of melted white chocolate and a sprinkling of matcha powder.

Chocolatier’s tip: If you like intense flavour combinations, swap our EXCELLENCE White Chocolate with a Touch of Vanilla for our decadent EXCELLENCE 70% Dark Chocolate.
