Yield Makes 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 oz unsweetened chocolate, coarsely chopped
10 oz semisweet chocolate chunks (2 1/2 cups)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
2/3 cup whole milk
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 14 (1/2-cup) muffin cups with paper liners.
  • Melt unsweetened chocolate and 1/2 cup semisweet chunks in a metal bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water, stirring. Remove bowl from heat and cool slightly.
  • Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Whisk vanilla into milk in another bowl.
  • Beat butter with brown sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer until pale and fluffy, then add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add melted chocolate and beat well. Mix in flour and milk alternately in batches, scraping down side of bowl and beginning and ending with flour. Fold in remaining chunks.
  • Divide batter among lined muffin cups (fill empty cups halfway with water). Bake in upper and lower thirds of oven, switching position of pans halfway through baking, until a tester comes out clean, 22 to 25 minutes total. Cool muffins in pans on racks 15 minutes, then invert onto racks to cool.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate chips for the best flavor. Chop up a chocolate bar if you don't have chocolate chips on hand.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will result in tough muffins.
  • Line the muffin tins with paper liners to make cleanup easier.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • For a sweeter muffin, add an extra 1/4 cup of sugar to the batter.
  • For a more decadent muffin, add 1/2 cup of chopped nuts or dried fruit to the batter.
  • Sprinkle the tops of the muffins with turbinado sugar or coarse sea salt before baking for a little extra crunch.

Conclusion:

Chocolate chunk muffins are a classic breakfast treat that are easy to make and loved by people of all ages.
