👨🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat and Prep:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with oil or butter.
2. Mix the Dry Ingredients:Kitchen ingredient organizer
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
3. Mix the Wet Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together buttermilk, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
4. Combine Wet and Dry:
Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients using a spatula or wooden spoon. Mix just until combined—don’t overmix! A few lumps are totally fine.
5. Add the Chocolate Goodness:
Stir in the chocolate chips, and if you’d like, toss in nuts or chocolate chunks for extra flavor and crunch.
6. Fill the Muffin Tin:
Divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
7. Bake to Perfection:
Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs (not wet batter!).
8. Cool and Enjoy:
Let the muffins cool in the tin for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely (if you can wait!).
