Chocolate Chip Muffins

My extra chocolate chip muffins are moist and delicious! Perfect for breakfast or dessert! Or if you’re like me, I love it for an afternoon snack.

Ingredients:

• 2 1/2 cups flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups chocolate chips (I have used milk, semi sweet and dark for these and I love them all)
• 1 stick unsalted butter, melted, cooled
• 1/2 cup sugar plus 1 tablespoon for top, optional
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup buttermilk

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a 12 cup muffin tray with non-stick cooking spray or line with paper cups.
2. In a large bowl combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and chocolate chips. In a medium bowl whisk together butter, sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, eggs and buttermilk.
3. Slowing fold dry ingredients into wet ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to over mix. Divide batter evenly into 12 muffin cups and sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar, if desired.
4. Bake for 5 minutes, then turn oven heat down to 375 degrees F and bake for another 12-14 minutes or until tops are golden brown. Remove and allow to cool for about 10 minutes.
5. Serve and enjoy!!
