Double Chocolate Muffins
Description
Double Chocolate Muffins combine cocoa powder and chocolate chips with basic baking ingredients for a chocolate-rich muffin. The mixture of baking powder and baking soda provides lift, while buttermilk adds slight acidity that balances the chocolate bitterness and contributes moisture. The oil helps maintain tenderness throughout baking.
The coarse sugar sprinkled on top creates a faintly crunchy surface contrasting the soft, tender insides. Baking at 350 degrees ensures even cooking, with the muffins tested by a toothpick for doneness.
These muffins suit breakfast or snacks, complementing coffee or milk. Their texture and rich chocolate flavor offer a satisfying baked good without needing elaborate additions.
Ingredients
- 2 cup flour
- 2/3 cup cocoa powder
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 2 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 cup canola oil or vegetable oil
- sugar topping, coarse
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350, and grease muffins tins with cooking spray.
- Mix the dry ingredients - flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, chocolate chips - in one bowl and stir to mix together well.
- Mix the wet ingredients - buttermilk, eggs, vanilla, cooking oil - in another bowl and stir to break up the eggs and combine all the liquids.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients all at once, and stir until just mixed. Don't worry if there are a few lumps of flour.
- Spoon the batter into muffin tins and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the muffin comes out clean.
- Cool on wire racks.
