Notes

    1. You can melt the chocolate in a double boiler or straight in a saucepan while stirring constantly. If you're melting the chocolate in the microwave, use short intervals and stir it in between to prevent it from burning.
    1. Don't overmix the dough, or it can become tough.
    1. Don't overbake the muffins to ensure a gooey center and moist texture.
