Ingredients

• 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
• ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tsp baking powder
• ½ tsp baking soda
• ½ tsp salt
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup milk (whole or buttermilk for extra richness)
• ½ cup vegetable oil (or melted butter)
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. In another bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla until smooth.
4. Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined (do not overmix).
5. Fold in the chocolate chips.
6. Spoon the batter evenly into the muffin cups, filling about ¾ full.
7. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs.
8. Allow muffins to cool slightly before serving warm or at room temperature.

Description

These muffins are everything a chocolate lover dreams of—fluffy, moist, and bursting with melty chocolate chips in every bite. They have a rich cocoa base balanced with just the right sweetness, making them indulgent but not overwhelming. Enjoy them with a cup of coffee, tea, or even a cold glass of milk.

Tips

• Buttermilk swap: Use buttermilk instead of regular milk for extra moisture and tenderness.
• Extra chocolatey: Sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top before baking for a bakery-style finish.
• Don’t overmix: Stir just until the flour disappears; overmixing can make muffins dense.
• Storage: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
• Warm it up: Reheat briefly in the microwave to enjoy that fresh-out-of-the-oven taste.

Correction

If your muffins turn out too dry, you may have baked them for too long—check a few minutes earlier next time.
If they seem too dense, you may have overmixed the batter. Stir gently to keep the texture light and fluffy.

Enjoy

Serve these Irresistible Chocolate Muffins warm, with gooey melted chocolate chips, and watch them disappear within minutes. Whether shared with family, friends, or kept all to yourself, they are sure to bring smiles with every bite.
