Chocolate Chocolate Chip Muffins


This is my attempt to recreate the delicious muffins at costco in this same flavor. I just can't buy 12 giant muffins and expect to eat them before they go bad. So I decided to make a smaller dozen of muffins. I'm going to use these as a quick breakfast or snack to take to class and make all the other students jealous. haha

Ingredients:

1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
2 t baking powder
1/2 t baking soda
2 tbs. cocoa powder
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chip, plus 1/2 c to sprinkle on top
1 t salt
1 cup milk
1/3 cup plus 2 t vegetable oil
1 egg
1 t vanilla extract

Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.Get a muffin pan and fill each cup with a paper muffin/cupcake cup.

2. Put the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cocoa, sugar, and 3/4 cup of the chocolate chips into a large bowl.

3. Pour all the liquid ingredients into a measuring cup.

4. Mix the dry and wet ingredients together, remembering that a lumpy batter makes the best muffins. Stir only 15 times maximum. The more you stir, the tougher the muffins will turn out.

5. Spoon into the prepared muffin tin. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup chocolate chips on top and then bake for 20 minutes or until when you insert a toothpick into the middle of the muffin, it comes out clean.

6. Remove from tin and allow to cool on the counter for awhile before storing.
