Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) 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. Mix until well combined.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dry mixture.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold the mixture using a spatula. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be just combined and slightly lumpy.
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 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 a few moist crumbs attached.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the muffins warm or at room temperature. Enjoy their moist and chocolatey goodness!
