Why’ll love this recipe?

  • These muffins are moist and fluffy with a soft texture. Relish it while the chocolate chips are still melting.
  • Finally, this recipe needs a mixing bowl and a whisk to whip up the whole process. (I use an electric hand mixer because I’m used to it.)

FAQ

Can I use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour?

Yes, you can use it. The texture of the muffin will not be the same. Also, you can use a 50:50 ratio of both flours.

Is Dutch process cocoa powder is must for the recipe?

No, you can use any unsweetened cocoa powder available in your pantry. Use quality cocoa powder for the best result. Because the aroma and rich color of the muffin is vital for this recipe,

Can I use any variety of chocolate chips for this recipe?

Yes, feel free to use your favorite chocolate chips, either dark or milk chocolate. Chocolate chips are purely for an extra chocolatey texture to the muffins.

Why did the muffins turn out dry?

The reason may be overbaking and excess flour. So accurate measurement of the ingredients is vital for muffin drying out.

Can I use butter for this recipe?

Yes, you can add only butter in place of oil, or a 50:50 ratio of butter and flavourless oil.

How about using some nuts with chocolate chips?

You can use your favourite nuts along with chocolate chips. It is purely your palate’s preference.

What is the best substitute for yogurt?

You can replace it with Greek yogurt or sour cream for this recipe.

Pro Tip

Achieving a moist texture is crucial. For this reason, do not overmix the muffin batter. Over-mixing leads to gluten formation, and in turn, muffin texture turns tough, crunchy, and dense. Also, do not reduce the quantity of sugar. Sugar is important to hold moisture in the muffin.

To achieve a bakery-style tall muffin top, fill the muffin cup liners to ¾ of the cup.
