Classic Chocolate Chip Muffins Recipe
Soft, moist, and packed with chocolate chips, these muffins are an easy homemade treat that beats anything from the store.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter melted
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 ¼ cups chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat & Prep: Set oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with liners or grease it lightly.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and salt. No clumps allowed.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk melted butter, sugar, eggs, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
- Mix it Up: Gently fold wet and dry ingredients together. Do not overmix unless you love dense muffins.
- Add Chocolate Chips: Stir in chocolate chips until evenly distributed. Try not to eat them all first.
- Fill the Tin: Spoon batter into muffin cups, filling them ¾ of the way to avoid overflow disasters.
- Bake to Perfection: Pop them in the oven for 18 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool & Devour: Let them cool for 5 minutes before removing from the tin. Eat one warm because you deserve it.
