🛒 Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2½ cups (315 g) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup (120 ml) vegetable oil or melted butter
- 1 cup (240 ml) milk
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
Add-ins
- 1½ cups (270 g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
- Extra chocolate chips for topping
👩🍳 Instructions
1. Prepare the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners or lightly grease it.
2. Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together:
- Flour
- Sugar
- Baking powder
- Baking soda
- Salt
Stir in 1¼ cups of the chocolate chips.
3. Mix the Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, whisk together:
- Eggs
- Milk
- Oil (or melted butter)
- Vanilla extract
4. Make the Batter
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
Mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix—a few lumps are perfectly fine.
5. Fill the Muffin Cups
Fill each muffin liner about ¾ full using an ice cream scoop.
Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips on top of each muffin.
6. Bake
Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean (a little melted chocolate is okay).
7. Cool
Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
💡 Tips for Perfect Muffins

- ✨ Add coarse sugar on top before baking for a bakery-style crunchy topping.
