The 5-minute chocolate chip muffins are light and delicate little treats, very soft, perfect for breakfast or a snack, they can be further enriched with a layer of cream or jam. The recipe is simple and super quick, my 5-minute muffins are gaining great success thanks to the ease of execution, the ricotta version and the chocolate version are absolutely my favorites.
Their success is due to their versatility and the very fast process, you will only need two bowls and a hand whisk to make the batter to bake.
The 5-minute muffins are flavored with orange and vanilla but you can vary the flavors as you like, being a neutral batter it is ideal for being filled, I recommend cutting it in half and filling it with custard and strawberries or with a delicious paradise cream. Have fun personalizing it and try the other variations as well:
