Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp salt

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

2 large eggs

1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (or your preferred flavored yogurt)

1/3 cup vegetable oil

1/2 cup brewed espresso or strong coffee, cooled to room temperature

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Optional: Whipped cream for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a loaf pan by greasing it lightly or lining it with parchment paper to ensure easy removal of the muffins after baking.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well blended. Set this mixture aside for later use.

      Mix Wet Ingredients: In a larger mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and eggs. Whisk them together vigorously until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Next, add in the Greek yogurt, vegetable oil, the cooled espresso, and vanilla extract. Mix until all wet ingredients are fully combined and the mixture is uniform.

        Combine Mixtures: Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Using a spatula or wooden spoon, gently fold the two mixtures together until just combined to avoid overmixing, which can result in denser muffins.

          Add Chocolate Chips: Carefully fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter for delightful bursts of chocolate in every slice.

            Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula for an even surface. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean.

              Cool: Once baked, remove the muffin loaf from the oven and let it cool in the pan for approximately 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

                Slice and Serve: Once the loaf is fully cooled, slice it thickly into muffin slices. For an indulgent touch, serve with a dollop of whipped cream on top or drizzle a bit of espresso over the slices for an extra mocha flair.

                  Freeze (Optional): To transform these slices into a cool treat, you can place the sliced muffins in the freezer for about 1 hour. Enjoy them cold for a refreshing frozen yogurt experience!
