1. Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6 and line a 12-hole muffin tin with some paper cases. Sift the flour, and bicarbonate of soda into a large bowl, then stir in the cherries, chocolate and sugar. Add the beaten eggs, yogurt and then the butter and stir to combine. It doesn't matter if the mixture looks a bit lumpy, it's more important not to overmix or the muffins will turn out tough.
2. Fill the paper cases and bake for 20-25 mins until risen and golden brown. Transfer to a rack to cool. They are especially delicious eaten slightly warm.

  Please could you add an option to make it easy to search for recipes that can be frozen. For example after Christmas we were fed up with leftovers and I wanted to find a range of recipes I could freeze but couldn't find a way of identifying which were freezable without checking each in turn.

  best muffin recipe ever- yummy and moist bursting with flavour The sour cherries cut through the richness of the white and dark chocolate. Used green & blacks chocolate- well worth using good ingredients
