Preparation Steps
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, mix the milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. The batter should have some lumps.
- Fold in the chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Fill the muffin cups about two-thirds full with the batter.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For a twist, add a teaspoon of cinnamon or nuts like walnuts for added texture and flavor. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze up to 3 months.
