Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.33 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 unit large egg
- 0.5 cup milk
- 0.25 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 0.25 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 24-cup mini muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk to combine.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, egg, milk, Greek yogurt, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the muffins dense.
Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Spoon the batter into the prepared mini muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your dark chocolate mini muffins as a treat on their own or with a cup of coffee or milk!
