Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups with non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips to evenly distribute them in the dry ingredients.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until fully blended.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean or with only a few moist crumbs.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy these delicious chocolate breakfast muffins!
