Combine dry ingredients in one bowl and whisk/mix well wet ingredients in a second bowl. Combine the wet and dry ingredients. Stir-well until no lumps. The batter will be on the thicker side but still very moist.
If not using muffin liners, lightly grease the muffin tin with olive oil. Fill muffin cups 1/2 full with batter. Use a small teaspoon to create a little indent in the middle. Fill-in with about 2 tsp melted chocolate. Fill the muffin cups with more batter about ¾ full.
Bake for 30 minutes, middle rack. Let cool before carefully removing them from the tin. They are soft and fluffy so handle with care. Serve with coconut yogurt and melted chocolate as frosting/spread.
