Chocolate Chip Muffins
Description
The recipe begins by mixing dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, brown and granulated sugars, baking powder, and salt. Separately, melted butter is combined with eggs, whole milk, and vanilla extract. The wet ingredients are poured into the dry mixture and stirred gently to just combine, avoiding overmixing.
Chocolate chips fold through the batter, ensuring an even distribution of melting chocolate in each muffin. Baking at 400°F for 17-20 minutes produces muffins that are nicely risen with a light crust and moist interior. The muffins cool briefly before serving warm or at room temperature.
The notes advise consuming the muffins on the day they’re made for best texture, but leftover muffins can be stored at room temperature for up to two days or frozen for up to two months. Warming them before serving helps restore softness.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ⅓ cup light brown sugar packed
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup butter melted and cooled, unsalted
- 2 egg lightly beaten
- ⅔ cup milk whole
- 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract pure
- 1 ½ cups milk chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line 12 muffin cups with paper liners or spray the wells of the pan with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugars, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In medium bowl, whisk together melted butter, eggs, milk, and vanilla, mixing until well combined.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the liquid ingredients into the well. Stir until ingredients are just combined - do not over mix the batter. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Evenly divide the batter into the prepared muffin pan wells. Bake for 17-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Remove muffins to a wire rack and cool for at least 5 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- Best eaten the day they are made for optimal freshness and texture.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days.
- Warm muffins briefly in the microwave before serving to refresh softness.
- Freeze wrapped airtight for up to two months and thaw before reheating.
