To make Chocolate Chip Muffins, given below are the basic things you would require:
After gathering these together, start with getting a muffin tray with 12 to 14 moulds or 12 muffin cups.
Grease these with vegetable oil on the sides or line with paper liners or paper cups.
Preheat your oven up to 400 degrees F or 200 degrees C.
Then take a mixing bowl and put the all purpose flour in it. Add Sugar, baking powder and baking soda in it. Then add three fourth cups of chocolate chips into a bowl. Stir them together for a while.
Now take another mixing bowl and add the egg and beat it gently for a few minutes. Add the vanilla extract and butter in it. Stir them all together.
Then add this liquid mixture of eggs and butter to the dry mixture of the all purpose flour and sugar, right at the centre. Keep stirring the mixture as you do this. Stir until the mixture starts becoming a smooth batter. Add in the chocolate chips next and fold all of it in.
Once the mixture becomes an absolutely smooth batter, get your muffin cups and spoon the batter gently into them. Do not fill your cups to the brim as they may ooze out while baking. Fill only up to 3/4th of the cups. If you like you can even sprinkle the chocolate chip on top of the batter after putting them into the cups.
Put the cups in the oven and leave them to bake for about 20 to 25 minutes. After that just see if your muffins are fluffy and risen, just to make sure insert a toothpick right at crown of the muffin, through the centre and see if it comes out clean. If it does, your muffins are ready to serve.
Take them out of the over and keep them on a shelf to cool for 5 minutes. Take them out of the cups and dish up. Have it with more chocolate or syrups or whipped cream or just simply as per your choice.
If you like experimenting you can even mix in dry fruits or fruits like bananas, strawberries, blueberries, pineapples etc. that are your favorites, to the batter before baking; to give it your personal touch.
Chocolate as we all know is something that almost everyone loves with all their heart and might. This recipe would be an absolute delight for any member, old or young in the family.
