Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Chocolate Chips
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract. Mix well until combined.
  4. Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined (it’s okay if there are a few lumps).
  5. Carefully fold in the chocolate chips, making sure they’re evenly distributed.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about ⅔ full.
  7. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Let them cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!

Notes

Don’t overmix the batter, as a lumpy texture is fine! Adding sour cream or yogurt can increase fluffiness. Use quality chocolate for best flavor; store leftovers in an airtight container for 2-3 days.
