We love making muffins in our household. When we feel like a post dinner treat, you wish to bake something as a wee thank you or need something to put in the lunchbox, they are our go to. Try this fail safe recipe for delicious, moist muffins.
1 3/4 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 tablespoons best quality cocoa powder
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips,
1 cup milk
1/3 cup plus 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Directions
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees and grease a muffin tin.
Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cocoa and sugar. Then add the chocolate chips into a large bowl. Pour all the liquid ingredients into a measuring jug.
Mix the dry and wet ingredients together gently, remember that a lumpy batter makes the best muffins. Spoon into the prepared muffin cases.
