Chocolate Cherry Muffins

Ingredients
310g Self-raising flour
60g cocoa powder
1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
180g Castor Sugar
1-1/2 cup full fat milk
2 eggs
150g unsalted butter, melted and cooled
220g Pitted sweet cherries
50g Dark chocolate couverture

Method
  1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees C.
  2. Sift flour, cocoa powder and bicarbonate of soda into bowl. Add in sugar. Make a well in the centre.
  3. In a jug, wisk milk and egg together and pour into well. Add butter, then fold gently with a spatula, until just combined.
  4. Add in cherries and couverture. Mixture should be slightly lumpy.
  5. Fill the muffin moulds until 3/4 full.
  6. Bake for 20 minutes.

Can add more chocolate couverture, as well as cocoa powder. Cherries aren't very tasty. Believe muffins would be better without cherries.
Best muffin texture so far.
