Chocolate Chocolate Chip Muffins

1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp fine salt
2 large eggs
4 tbs unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
3/4 cup milk (whole milk used)
1 tbs vegetable oil
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips (minis used)

Preheat oven to 350

Line the muffin with paper liners and lightly coat with cooking spray (this may seem like overkill, but otherwise the muffins will stick!

Whisk flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt in bowl.
In another bowl, lightly whisk the eggs, then whisk in the butter, brown sugar, milk, oil and vanilla
quickly fold wet ingredients into the dry. Just before the batter comes together, fold in the chocolate chips - don't mix batter to much or the muffins will be tough.

Divide the batter amond the muffin cups, Bake until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes

Serve with some jam, if you wish... jam not included in calories!

I'm planning on making these for breakfast tomorrow! oh ya these make 12 :)

    I think I may have to start the Chocolate Chip Muffin Diet: 4 meals per day, each consiting of one muffin and 3/4 cup of whole milk!

    (I wish I was joking more than I actually am...)

    Yes I can't wait to try these as well! I searched for muffin recipes online yesterday... went grocery shopping today and got everything I need... I'll be posting more muffin recipes in the upcoming days as well! Wished these weren't soo high in sodium tho :(@Danielleeee I soo know how you feel! lol I've always bought the chocolate chip muffins from the store (in box) and they are just soo expensive, so I thought I'd try and make some myself!
