problems baking with white chocolate?

Ok I remember the first time i made white chocolate muffins they were to die for. I was in one of those 'moods' and I couldn't wait for them to get out of the oven and cool so I just too it out of the oven and opened it to a melting ooze of white chocolate in my hand. Let me just say it tasted so divine. However, since then I have made probably 3 batches of white chocolate muffins and each time has turned out...well not so nice. Yeah its a muffin, yeah its white chocolate but theres no ooze..the white chocolate chips tend to retain their shape and don't melt apart like milk chocolate does in cookies/muffins. What has happened? my first inkling was that (because I don't really use a recipe) I may have given the wrong ratio of butter and added too much which somehow caused the white chocolate to melt and mix with the butter?

Is there any way to get that 'ooze' back again? you know that 'betty crocker chocolate chip cookie ooze' i want that with white chocolate!!

thanks for your answers, best one gets 10 p!

    I have a feeling that the white chocolate chips harden as the muffins cool and you ate that first one while is was still warm. You might try using a recipe and see what happens, but most of the pictures I saw of cupcake/muffins containing white chocolate chips looked like they were intact. Also be sure you are purchasing pure white chocolate chips not the yogurt white chocolate chips.

    This is a link to a White Chocolate Chip Raspberry Muffin recipe that sounds yummy. You may have to cut and paste it into your browser or just google "white chocolate chip muffin recipes"

    The white chocolate will have melted but if you leave the muffins to cool they'll go hard again. So if you want them to ooze, eat them fresh from the oven or warm them up in the microwave.

    Chocolate chips are made NOT to melt and become gooey...... They will melt to a soft stage in the muffins, BUT will not melt like regular chocolate does.. You have to use white chocolate in a bar form for it to melt to a liquid stage.
