Total Time: 40 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 muffins
Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or generously grease with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Ensure all dry ingredients are well combined and free of lumps.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, and eggs until thoroughly blended and smooth.
- Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet ingredient mixture into it. Gently fold the ingredients together using a spatula, being careful not to overmix. Mix just until the ingredients are incorporated.
- Fold in 3/4 cup of the chocolate chips, reserving 1/4 cup for topping the muffins.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 to 3/4 full.
- Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips on top of each muffin batter.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean with just a few moist crumbs.
- Remove from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve warm or at room temperature. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Tips
- Sifting Matters: Always sift your dry ingredients to prevent lumps and ensure a smooth, even texture in your muffins.
- Don't Overmix: When combining wet and dry ingredients, mix just until incorporated. Overmixing can lead to tough, dense muffins.
- Room Temperature Ingredients: Try to use eggs and milk that are at room temperature for better mixing and a more consistent batter.
- Chocolate Chip Distribution: Fold most chips into the batter and save a few for topping to create a visually appealing and extra chocolatey muffin.
- Check for Doneness: Use the toothpick test - it should come out with just a few moist crumbs, not completely clean or completely wet.
- Cooling is Key: Let muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to prevent soggy bottoms.
- Storage Tip: Store in an airtight container and consume within 3 days for maximum freshness and flavor.
