Dan Lepard chocolate custard muffins

[lolalotta]

Just wanted to say thank you to the poster who flagged up the Dan Lepard chocolate custard muffins OMG, the best chocolate cake I have ever made. I can't believe it has taken me 34 yrs to find THE CHOCOLATE CAKE recipe! The hunt is over...

Habbibu, it was you, THANK YOU!

May I thank you, Lolalotta, for your thank you message. Having read it, I too made the chocolate muffins and they are delicious.

So HAPPY you liked them Nolda... I put a fudgey icing on mine. I found out they freeze too, iced! I thought they would be even more indulgent with chocolate chunks too...

I found them crumbly

Moist yes, tasty yes, but ruined by the fact you can't take bite without it disintegrating into bits.

you didn't find this???

I took them to work, they loved them :-)

Inspired me - mine are in the oven as I type .....

Did you ice them Cake? I didn't notice them being particularly crumbly?

I made mine with gluten free flour and they are lovely, taste just like they "normal" not gritty like most gf stuff does - thank you - one for the folder

Glad they worked out Pizza!
They're so good I want to order his book now from the library and check out his other recipes!

Dan Lepard is my hero. I love his book in every way- all the recipes are a bit different, they are reliable and taste great. I discovered him in a Guardian baking supplement he edited and wrote many recipes for- it was so good i still have it and use it after many years. I have followed him since. He is lovely himself too.

Cakeforbreakfast: I agree with you. I made these today and they were indeed very crumbly. Taste good though.
