Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 units large eggs
- 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup milk or dark chocolate chunks
Instructions
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 flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and eggs until fully combined.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should still be slightly lumpy.
Fold in 1 cup of the semi-sweet chocolate chips and all of the chocolate chunks until evenly distributed.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of chocolate chips on top of the batter for an extra decadent touch.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out with just a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely or enjoy warm.
