Instructions

1. 1.

   Preheat the oven to 180°C fan. Grease a muffin tin with 12 cavities well.

   Rinse the strawberries, pat dry and remove the stems. Roughly chop the chocolate. Melt the butter slowly over low heat in a saucepan. Add the chocolate and let it melt. Stir into a homogeneous mixture and remove from heat. Whisk together the milk, egg, sour cream, and sugar with an electric mixer. In a bowl mix flour, cornstarch, baking powder, cocoa, and salt well.
