Luam 6 linguri de compozitie alba si o amestecam cu lingurita de cacao. Eu am vrut sa-mi iasa din 2 culori aceste briose. Se pot face numai din cacao sau fara, cum preferati.
Take 6 tablespoons white composition and mix with a teaspoon of cocoa. I wanted to do in 2 colors these muffins. You can only make with cocoa or without it , how  if you prefer.

Eu am avut o forma pentru briose primita de la mama. Ies ca niste floarea soarelui in miniatura.

I had a muffin form received from my mother. It's like sunflower.

Am pus cate o lingura in forma, cat sa acopere desenul si am bagat la cuptor pana s-a inchegat putin.
I put a spoon in shape enough to cover design and I put the oven up to brown slightly.

Adaugam restul de compozitie si bucatelele de ciocolata.
Add the remaining composition and chocolate chips.

Mai lasam la cuptor aproximativ 20 de minute, la foc mic.
May leave in oven about 20 minutes on low heat.

Se scot din forma si se servesc calde sau reci.  
We remove from the shape and serve hot or cold.
