Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk (or buttermilk)
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil (or melted butter)
  • 1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.

  3. In another bowl, mix sugar, eggs, milk, oil, sour cream, and vanilla until smooth.
  4. Pour wet ingredients into dry and stir until just combined—do not overmix.
  5. Fold in chocolate chips or chunks.
  6. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full. Top with extra chocolate chips if desired.

  8. Cool in pan for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

Notes

  • Mix in nuts like walnuts or pecans for crunch.
  • Use white chocolate or peanut butter chips for variation.
  • Make mini muffins and bake for 10–12 minutes.
  • Reheat in the microwave for 10–15 seconds for melty chocolate centers.
