¼ cup (50g) brown sugar (for extra moisture)
-
2 tsp baking powder

3️⃣ Mix wet ingredients – In another bowl, whisk milk, oil, egg, and vanilla.
4️⃣ Combine – Pour wet mix into dry mix and stir just until combined (don’t overmix—lumps are fine!).
5️⃣ Fold in chocolate chips, reserving a few for topping.
6️⃣ Fill muffin cups ¾ full and sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top.
7️⃣ Bake 18-20 mins until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
8️⃣ Cool 5 mins in the pan, then transfer to a rack.
Pro Tips:
✔ Extra fluffy? Replace ¼ cup milk with yogurt or sour cream.
✔ Gooey center? Add a chocolate chunk in the middle of each muffin before baking.
✔ Storage: Keep in an airtight container for 3 days or freeze for up to a month.
Enjoy warm with a glass of milk! 🧁🍫
