Description

These classic Chocolate Chip Muffins are soft, fluffy, and loaded with melty chocolate chips in every bite. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a sweet snack, they are easy to make and stay moist for days.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • ½ cup granulated sugar

  • ½ cup brown sugar

  • 1 tbsp baking powder

  • ½ tsp salt

  • ¾ cup whole milk

  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1½ tsp vanilla extract

  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (plus extra for topping)


Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.

  • Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugars, baking powder, and salt.

  • Combine wet ingredients: In another bowl, whisk milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until well blended.

  • Make the batter: Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined (do not overmix). Fold in chocolate chips.

  • Fill muffin cups: Divide batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full. Sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top.

  • Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  • Cool and serve: Let muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.

Notes

For extra moist muffins, replace half of the butter with sour cream or Greek yogurt.

Use mini chocolate chips for a more even chocolate distribution.

Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
