{Recipe} Double Chocolate Muffins (with matcha green tea / salted egg yolk custard filling)

Baked some chocolate muffins to use up my leftover matcha and salted egg yolk custard ;) 

 In squares because i wanted them to look slightly different hur hur

I love my chocolate bakes dark, rich and intense. This wasn't strong enough for me, but it does have a hint of chocolate that doesn't make you feel sick and full afterwards :) I would probably add more fillings next time as I couldn't really taste it due to the chocolate!

I wanted the fillings to ~flow~ but I guess the custard cooked while the muffins were baking hahaha. Will try again!
