Divide the egg whites from the yolks and beat the latter with the sugar until frothy; add the softened butter and whisk into the mixture; add the flour a little at a time, and then the cornflour mixed with the baking powder; add some grated lemon zest and milk; continue to mix. Take a bag and put the pieces of a chocolate bar in it. Close the bag and break the chocolate with the help of a rolling pin. Add the chocolate chips to the mixture and stir again; Separately beat the egg whites adding a pinch of salt; fold the egg whites into the first mixture and stir from the bottom up. Grease the muffin tins or cups and bake them in a preheated oven at 180°C for 20-25 minutes (the cooking time varies depending on the amount of mixture used for each muffin, so it is best to do the toothpick test)
