Double Chocolate Chip Muffins

Ingredients

• 150 g unsalted butter (softened at room temperature)
• 2/3 cup granulated sugar (adjust based on preference)
• 2 g salt
• 3 large eggs (room temperature)
• 250 g all-purpose flour
• 30 g cocoa powder
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 6 tbsp milk
• 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 100 g semi-sweet chocolate chips (chopped, plus more to top the muffins)

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 340°F (170°C). Prepare the muffin pan with paper liners.

2. 2

   In a medium mixing bowl, add butter, sugar, and salt, and mix together until well blended and creamy. Add one egg at a time, and mix in.

3. 3

   Sift in flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder, and mix until just combined. Mix in milk and vanilla extract into the batter.

4. 4

   Add chopped semi-sweet chocolate chips, and fold them into the batter, being careful not to overmix.

5. 5

   Spoon the batter into the muffin liners, to about 3/4 full. Top with extra semi-sweet chocolate pieces. Bake for about 25 minutes, just until a toothpick in the center comes out clean. Every oven is different, so I recommend checking the muffins about 20 minutes into the baking time to prevent overbaking.

6. 6

   Transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool. Enjoy!
