Double Chocolate Chip Muffins

Ingredients:

• 1 and 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1 cup chocolate chips (you can use a mix of milk and dark chocolate)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined.
4. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
6. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
7. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for about 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs (avoid hitting a chocolate chip).
9. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
