Olympic Chocolate Muffins

Ingredients

  • 1 and 3/4 cups (220g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup (45g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (100g) brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup (240ml) whole milk or buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) vegetable oil or melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (175g) chocolate chips or chunks

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add the milk, oil, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined — do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips or chunks.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  7. Bake for 18–20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Enjoy your soft, chocolatey Olympic Chocolate Muffins!
