Ingredients
- 2 medium eggs
- 100 ml milk (or dairy free milk)
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
- 100g melted butter (or dairy free margarine)

- 100g soft unrefined cane sugar
- ½ cup chopped walnut
- ½ cup small dark chocolate chunks
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C.
- Mix the butter, eggs, milk and vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and cocoa powder, then add the sugar. Stir well.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry one, stir gently with a spatula. Add the rum. Fold in the chocolate bits and walnuts.
- Spoon the batter into a lined muffin tin or silicon muffin cases.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes.
- Rest in the tin for 2 minutes, transfer onto a wire rack to cool.
