- Cooking Method: Baking
- Prep Time: 15 minutes
- Cooking Time: 20 minutes
- Cuisine Type: American
Ingredients
- 1 and 3/4 cups (220g) all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup (55g) brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 cup (240ml) whole milk
- 1/2 cup (120ml) vegetable oil
- 1 large egg
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup (175g) chocolate chips
Cooking Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or spray with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, salt, and baking powder.
- In a separate bowl, combine the milk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract until well mixed.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Lumpy is our new best friend.
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips. Avoid eating too many at this stage. Or don’t. I won’t judge.
- Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full. Sprinkle additional chocolate chips on top if desired for extra chocolatey love.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. If it comes out with chocolate, you’ve hit the jackpot.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Or until you can’t bear it anymore and dive in.
Suggestions
- Alternative Ingredients: Try swapping out the chocolate chips for white chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, or even chopped nuts if you’re feeling adventurous.
- Garnishing Options: For some fancy flair, dust the tops with powdered sugar or drizzle with melted chocolate. Instant style points!
- Cooking Tips: Don’t overmix your batter—lumps are good. Also, for super moist muffins, add a dollop of Greek yogurt or sour cream to the wet ingredients. You can thank me later.
