🧾 Ingredients
All-purpose flour – 2 cups (250g)
Granulated sugar – ¾ cup (150g)
Baking powder – 2 teaspoons
Salt – ½ teaspoon
Milk – ¾ cup (180ml)
Vegetable oil or melted butter – ½ cup (120ml)
Eggs – 2 large
Vanilla extract – 1 teaspoon
Chocolate chunks or chopped chocolate – 1 cup (170g)

👩🍳 Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat
Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a muffin pan with paper liners or lightly grease it.
2️⃣ Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
3️⃣ Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk milk, oil (or melted butter), eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
4️⃣ Combine
Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Do not overmix — a slightly lumpy batter is perfect.
5️⃣ Add Chocolate
Fold in the chocolate chunks, reserving some for topping if desired.
6️⃣ Fill
Divide batter evenly into muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full. Sprinkle extra chocolate chunks on top.
7️⃣ Bake
Bake for 18–22 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few melted chocolate streaks.
8️⃣ Cool
Let muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
💛 Tips
For taller bakery-style tops, fill cups slightly higher and bake at 200°C (400°F) for the first 5 minutes, then reduce to 180°C (350°F) for the remaining time.
Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
Soft, chocolatey, and absolutely irresistible 🍫🧁
