Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir well to combine.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dry mixture.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until fully blended.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Gradually add the boiling water to the batter, stirring until smooth. The batter will be fairly liquid but that's normal.
Evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 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 minimal crumbs.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and allow the muffins to cool for 5 minutes in the pan.
Carefully transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely before serving. Enjoy!
