Chocolate Chip Muffins
Chocolate Chip Muffins feature a tender crumb made from all-purpose flour, sugar, melted butter, egg, milk, and vanilla extract. Semisweet chocolate chips are folded into the batter, providing sweet pockets throughout. The muffins bake with a golden crust, topped with a sprinkle of sugar for subtle crunch.

Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup granulated sugar divided, 2 tablespoons
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup butter melted and cooled to room temperature, unsalted
- 1 egg
- 1 cup milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a standard-size muffin tin with paper liners or spray with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, ½ cup of the sugar, baking powder and salt; set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and the egg. Add the milk and vanilla extract and whisk to combine.
- Add one-third of the flour mixture and whisk until combined, then add another third and whisk until combined. Using a rubber spatula, fold the remaining flour into the mixture, then fold in the chocolate chips.
- Divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups and sprinkle the tops with the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar. Bake until golden brown and a thin knife inserted into the center comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, place the pan on a wire rack and allow the muffins to cool completely before removing. The muffins can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days. (You can also freeze them by removing the paper liners, wrapping individually in plastic wrap and placing in a ziploc freezer bag.)
