Ingredients

Scale

Here’s what you’ll need to make Double Chocolate Chip Muffins (makes 12 muffins):

For the Muffins:

  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

  • 1 cup granulated sugar

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • 1 tsp baking soda

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1 cup buttermilk (or 1 cup milk + 1 tbsp lemon juice)

  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Optional Topping:

  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips or coarse sugar


Instructions

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease with non-stick spray.

Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3: Mix Wet Ingredients

In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 4: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined—do not overmix. Fold in the chocolate chips.

Step 5: Fill the Muffin Tin

Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full. Sprinkle with mini chocolate chips or coarse sugar if desired.

Step 6: Bake the Muffins

Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
