Ingredients

Steps

  1. Prepare according to the baking ingredients list. Also prepare some basic baking tools: an electric whisk. If you don’t have one, you can also use a rubber spatula.

  2. The package of Dr. Oetker's chocolate muffins comes with a baking paper cup and a pack of chocolate chips, so there is no need to buy them separately. Place 12 small paper cups on the baking rack and arrange them. Then, preheat the oven first, preheat the top heat and bottom heat at 180 degrees for 3 minutes (remember to preheat, the difference in the cake that comes out is quite big)

  3. Add the premixed powder, cooking oil, milk, and eggs into the mixing bowl, stir manually first, and then use a mixer after everything is blended together

  4. Use the mixer to mix at high speed for about 2-3 minutes, until it is almost uniform (as shown in the picture, the uniform batter looks very smooth)

  5. Chocolate itself is very sweet, but eating too much will make it greasy, so you can add a banana to adjust it, and the moisture of the banana can be well combined with the cake during the baking process to reduce the greasiness of the chocolate. Chop the banana and add to the batter, mix well

  6. Put the batter evenly into 12 small paper cups, you can use two small spoons to operate.

  7. It’s still the same temperature as before. The top heat and bottom heat are both 180 degrees. Select the upper and lower tubes to heat together and bake for 20 minutes (this is the process of the cake slowly expanding)

  8. Baking for a long time will affect the moisture of the cake, and the cake will dry out and crack. However, this depends on personal preference. I prefer the ones that are slightly open and more durable for storage (about 2-3 days at room temperature).

  9. Let it cool down first after taking it out of the oven. After the cake has cooled, you can start decorating

  10. Soften the chocolate syrup with hot water, then pour it over the chocolate muffins, smooth it out with a table knife, sprinkle with chocolate chips to make monkey hair, and then leave an area to quickly place cookies and marshmallows.

  11. Use biscuits to make the monkey's face and ears, and marshmallows to make eyes. When placing the biscuits and marshmallows, you can hold them slightly with your hands for 30 seconds, and release them when the chocolate syrup is about to dry (this is tried and true)
