Hello people hope you guys are having an amazing weekend. So
tell me who don’t like something sweet to sooth that sweet tooth of yours?
Well I know some people who don’t like sweets at all and I fail to understand
how! Not my kinda people J
Anyways, yesterday I was craving for something nice warm and
chocolaty and I didn't want to go out to the pastry shop. So I decided how
about some chocolate chip muffins? And yes when you get a craving and you
decide you want then why not whip up some! I was planning to go shopping in the
afternoon but the muffin craving made me bake some muffins before I went out. Yeah
it’s really easy and quick – hope you’ll enjoy this.
All that you need
This measurement is for a batch of 6 muffins.
Dry Ingredients
- All purpose flour – 2 cups
- Baking powder – ¼ cup
- Table Salt – 1 teaspoon
- Granulated sugar – 1 cup
- Chocolate chips – 1 cup (I have chopped down my Morde Dark chocolate bar in small chunks, you can take whole choco-chips which are readily available)
Wet Ingredients
- Un-salted butter – ½ cup
- Eggs – 2
- Milk – 1 cup
- Vanilla essence – 2 tspn
Let’s get started
As I told you earlier the procedure is very easy. You need
to mix the dry ingredients in a bowl and wet ingredients in another bowl and
then mix the two. So you don’t need to cream the butter & sugar and don’t require
any hand mixer or anything. So let’s see what you need to do.
- Mix flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and chocolate chips in
a mixing bowl just to ensure everything is mixed
- In a separate mixing bowl whisk 2 whole eggs and milk
(all should be in room temperature)
- Add the vanilla essence
- Now pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and
mix well
- Add ½ a cup of melted butter with the batter and mix.
[I am using unsalted butter here, if you are using salted
regular butter then skip adding salt in the batter]
- Line a muffin tray with paper cups and fill them with the
muffin batter.
[If you are using paper cups then you don’t need to grease
your muffin tray. In case you don’t have a muffin tray you could use the thick standing
muffin cups. You can also bake them in a ramekin but for that you need to
grease them well with butter or vegetable oil]
- Now bake the muffins in a preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius
for 25 mins.
- Before taking out the muffins insert a tooth pick and check
if it’s coming out clean. If it comes out with batter on it bake for 10 more
mins.
So that’s it your choco-chip muffins are ready.

Little Suggestions
Muffins taste great when it’s warm and fresh. You can see
the chocolate chips melt and it becomes heavenly. In case you want little more
indulgence you can drizzle some chocolate sauce on it. I tried with some maple
syrup and it was yummy.
So do try and let me know how it was.
