Instructions

Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with liners, filling one empty cup halfway with water.
Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Toss in chocolate chunks, reserving some for topping.
In another bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil until smooth.
Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Divide the batter evenly into the muffin liners, filling them 3/4 full, and press the reserved chocolate chunks on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 28 minutes, or until a skewer inserted comes out with moist crumbs.
Cool the muffins in the pan for 2 to 3 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
Once slightly cooled, cut a small hole in the center of each muffin and remove the core.
For the ganache, microwave the chocolate and cream in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Pipe the ganache into the muffin centers until it slightly overflows and let it set before serving.

Notes

These muffins can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
You can substitute the milk chocolate with more dark chocolate for a richer flavor.
Feel free to add nuts for an extra crunch.
