You need: muffin tin
- 2 YOGI TEA® Soul Balm teabags

- 100 g vegan chocolate (min. 70% cocoa) + 6–8 additional pieces of chocolate
- 45 ml rapeseed oil

2. In a bowl, mix the tea with the rapeseed oil and the melted chocolate. Add the date sugar and cocoa powder and stir until smooth.
3. In a second bowl, mix the flour and baking powder, then gradually stir the flour into the batter. Mix the dough until there are no lumps.
