Chocolate Chip Whisky Muffins Recipe

[Photograph: Anna Markow]
I don't know where other pastry chefs get their ideas, but I was inspired to create muffins with my favorite Irish whisky. With slightly fruity bittersweet chocolate and some fresh cinnamon, these muffins are a great way to start your day. Don't forget to warm them up so the chocolate is melty and top them off with some salted butter.

- 1 teaspoon cinnamon

1.
Place rack in center of oven and preheat oven to 400°F. Place flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in a medium mixing bowl and stir to combine. In a separate bowl whisk together vegetable oil, yogurt, whisky and vanilla. Pour wet mixture into dry mixture and top with chocolate chips, then quickly but gently fold to combine. Batter will still be slightly lumpy.
