Chocolate and Vanilla Muffin Cake

Hi everyone!!! I am back again with another delicious recipe for you! This time it's a chocolate-vanilla muffin cake with rainbow chocolate chips on top! Definitely my son's favorite. If you have kids they are definitely going to love it!!! It is a very easy and simple recipe that everyone can make, and takes very little time to prepare it. The taste of the cake is absolutely fantastic and it looks very appetizing too! Especially I like the melted white chocolate in the cake. Hmm... Yummy... !!!
:) :) :) Are you of the same opinion with me! :) :) :)


Now let's get to the point and talk about the recipe and write down the list of ingredients you'll need to bake this amazing muffin cake.
To bake this cake you'll need:
  • 3 free range eggs
  • 1 cup of granulated sugar
  • 1 cup of plain Greek yogurt
  • 175 ml (2/3 of a cup) sunflower oil (you can replace it with butter or margarine if you like)
  • 3 cups of plain flour (you can replace it with self-rising flour, in this case do not use baking soda )
  • 1 teaspoon of baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract 
  • 3 tablespoon of cocoa powder
  • 50 gr white chocolate chips 
  • 30 gr rainbow chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon of shredded coconut (this is optional, you can totally skip it if you don't have or don't like shredded coconut, or maybe you are allergic to it)


Now let's talk about the steps you take in order to prepare the muffin cake.
  • Preheat your oven 180 degree Celsius.
  • Mix the eggs with sugar using an electric mixer or a wooden spoon that won't  make any difference until the sugar is .dissolved.
  • Add the sunflower oil (or the softened butter) and the vanilla extract and wisk the mixture again.
  • Take a separate bowl pour the Greek yogurt, add the baking soda and mix them together until it starts bubbling.Add this mixture to the egg- sugar- sunflower mixture and wisk it again. 
  • Add the flour (1 cup at a time) to the mixture and mix it until you get a smooth and thick consistency.
  • Now it's time to separate the dough into 2 parts, Pour half of the dough into another bowl and add cocoa powder into it and mix it thoroughly. Add white chocolate chips to the other half of the dough and stir it with a spoon until the white chocolate chips are evenly distributed in the dough.
  • Take a round baking tin and cover it with non-stick baking paper(the one that is like a giant muffin will be excellent , but any round baking tin will do the job. The baking tin I am currently using is a very old one, I have got it from my grandmother :) :) :) I love it because it brings back sweet memories from my grandmother.) I usually oil the baking paper a little bit so that it came off easer when the cake is baked.
  • Add 1 full tablespoon of the white chocolate dough into the baking tin then add 1 full tablespoon from the dark chocolate dough, Layer them on top of each other to get zebra stripes, repeat the steps until you are finished with the dough. Sprinkle the rainbow chocolate chips and on top and add shredded coconut if you like.
  • Place the baking tin into the preheated oven and bake it in the medium heat (in the medium shelf of the oven) for 30 minutes or until you put a toothpick into the center of the cake and it comes out dry. 

I honestly hope you liked today's recipe. If you have any questions feel free to ask me in the comment section below. I wish you  have a fantastic week. See you later. Bye!!!
