  Haved tried making these twice exactly as per the receipe - neither time did they rise well and muffins were stodgy. I'm not sure that there is enough rising agent in 1/2 tsp baking powder. Not sure if I'll try again!

  I substituted the blueberries for raspberries. The muffins tasted delicious. Will try the blueberries next time!

  I've made these twice now; once as per the recipe and once substituting cranberries for the blueberries. Both versions were delicious and a big hit with adults and children. Will definitely be making them again!

  Be sure not to leave out the sugar or else they go rock hard ;-)

  Used raspberries instead of blueberries. The muffins were light and fluffy - a really good combination between the fruit and chocolate.

  Have made these twice so far... they are never as fluffly as other muffin recipes, and the first time round I thought I'd made them wrong! They are still delicious, just not quite the consistency I'd expect. They always go down well, and most people have two!!

  Have to agree with Coolcookies, made these last night and was really disappointed. They didn't rise much and tasted like batter rather than cake. When I think of muffins I'm thinking big and fluffy and pouring out over the edge of the mould, these just weren't!

  Vicky- When making muffins i usually use a full teaspoon of baking powderand two medium eggs.And if u use fruit in muffins u should dip the fruit in some plain flour first. It help keep the moisture in the fruits.And when your choosing which fruit to use make sure it doesnt contain too much water as it ruins the texture of the muffins! P.s for a healthier alternative use sunflower oil instead of butter! Just whisk some in with the eggs before adding to the flour etc. (I'll get back to you how much oil to use for 6 muffins!)

  I used raspberries as I made them at the same time as making the blueberry and banana muffins. These r=were very nice and I will definitely make them again. They felt a little heavy and didn't rise much but they didn't taste heavy - I think it must have been the weight of the chocolate :-) I used Green & Blacks and fresh raspberries. Delicious.

  I used raspberries instead of blueberries with a class of 20 year 7 students. They turned out lovely. The mixture did stick slighlty to the cake cases. Am doing a repeat lesson tonight, so will grease them this time. The kids thought they were fab!!! xx

  I've made these three times now. The first were delicious but, as others have commented, a little heavy. Following tips from other comments here I decided to try with more baking powder and egg. I decided to use one teaspoon of baking powder and two egg but increase the rest of the ingredients by 50%. The result was good but surprisingly dry - till I discovered the melted butter was still in the microwave! Today I made them again (the second way) but remembered the butter. They are delicious. I made six very large ones, used raspberries instead of blueberries and the chocoalte was Green & Blacks white chocolate with vanilla (delicious).

  I would have left the white chocolate in bigger chunks as I like really moreish food and felt that these were a bit subtle for me. My friends liked them a lot though!

  Made muffins for the first time today. Doubled the quantity of all the products and used 2 tsp of baking powder and 3 eggs. Also took dried cranberries instead of blueberries and used milk chocolate. In result got 12 gorgeous looking muffins :). They were great success and I was praised by all friends :). Next time will reduce the amount of sugar for healthy reasons, because dried fruit and chocolate give a lot of sweet by themselves. Enjoyed them greatly - they are so easy to do :)

  I should have read the reviews before I tried these as they were much stodgier than my usual muffins. My son absolutely adored them though and they get 3 stars despite the consistency because the flavour was great. I am going to try again but use self raising flour rather than plain and keep everything else the same and see what happens. Hopefully they will be less solid!

  Made these with blueberries and no chocolate. They tasted nice but didnt rise as a lot of others have mentioned. We are trying them again tonight with rhubarb, more baking powder and more egg.
