Ingredients
- 2½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup light brown sugar packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ¼ cup coarse sugar for topping optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners and lightly spray the top.
- Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl for 30 seconds to combine evenly.
- In another bowl, mix both sugars, breaking up any brown sugar lumps.
- Whisk in eggs until the mixture lightens, then add milk, oil, and vanilla, mixing well.
- Make a well in the dry ingredients, pour in the wet mixture, and fold gently with a spatula until just combined—lumpy batter is fine.
- Fold in chocolate chips with 3-4 strokes.
- Fill muffin cups ¾ full and sprinkle coarse sugar if you are using it.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick inserted between chocolate chips comes out clean.
- Let cool for 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack. Wait 15 minutes before eating to avoid burning yourself on melted chocolate.
