This recipe is delicious as-is, but I would recommend cutting back on or omitting the
chocolate chips altogether for this menu.

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

  • ½ cup cocoa powder

  • ¾ cup granulated sugar

  • 1 tablespoon baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • 1 cup chocolate chips

  • 1 cup milk

  • 2 eggs

  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1⁄3 cup vegetable oil

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder and salt, along with the chocolate chips, reserving a few chocolate chips for topping the muffins (optional).
  • Add the milk, eggs, vanilla and oil to a large liquid measuring cup or bowl. Whisk together with a fork.
  • Add the liquid ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix together just until no streaks of flour remain.
  • Divide the batter evenly between the 12 muffin cups and top with the remaining chocolate chips (optional).
  • Bake for about 23 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of one of the muffins comes out clean.

Notes
