Chocolate Chip Muffins

Tuesday, November 23, 2010

Sunday morning I made Chocolate Chip Muffins for breakfast. I have made them before and they are always a hit! They are super simple and delicious! I found the recipe at www.allrecipes.com.

What you need:

2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup white sugar
3 tsp baking powder
3/4 cup milk
1/2 tsp salt
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 egg
3/4 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
3 tbsp white sugar
2 tbsp brown sugar

What to do

Heat oven to 400 degrees

Grease the bottoms only of 12 muffin cups or line them with baking cups

In a medium bowl, combine flour, 1/2 cup of sugar, baking powder, chocolate chips, and salt; mix well. In a small bowl combine the milk, oil, and egg; blend well. Add dry ingredients all at once; stir just until dry ingredients are moistened (batter will be lumpy.)

Fill cups 2/3 full. Sprinkle tops of muffins before baking with the 3 tbsp of white sugar and the 2 tbsp of brown sugar.

Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool one minute before removing from pan. Serve warm.

On a personal note, my brother is in the Army and recently spent a year in Korea. Friday night he told me one of his friends that is still stationed there wanted to know if I would make him a care package with baked goods. I of course said I would be happy to! It made me smile to think that someone besides my family wanted some of the stuff I love to bake! I hope it puts a smile on his face!
