These mini chocolate and cherry muffins are perfect for parties and special occasions - use brandy or other alcohol-soaked cherries for adult parties!  You can make your own chocolate milk by mixing good-quality cocoa powder and/or dark chocolate with hot milk, then let it cool. Use this method too if you need the muffins to be dairy-free (almond milk or oaty milk are the best alternatives).  Serve the muffins at afternoon-tea parties, picnics, celebrations and so on.
