Cook Time:
20 minutes
Servings:
16 Muffins
Ingredients
  • ⅔ cup whole milk
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • ½ cup melted, cooled butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 ⅓ cups plain flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 F and liberally grease a muffin pan with butter.
  2. Combine the whole milk and lemon juice and give it a good stir, then set to one side.
  3. In a large bowl, mix together the melted, cooled butter and the granulated sugar. Then, beat the eggs in one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Mix in the milk mixture until a smooth batter has formed.
  4. Sift together the flour with the baking powder and the salt, and then stir it into the large bowl until just combined. The resulting mixture should be quite thick.
  5. Fold the chocolate chips into the muffin batter, and then allow the batter to rest for at least 30 minutes. Then, using a spoon, fill each hole in the muffin pan ¾ full with the batter.
  6. Place the filled muffin pan into the oven and allow the muffins to bake for 20 minutes until they are risen and golden in color. They will be ready when the muffins spring back gently when touched.
  7. Remove from the oven and allow the muffins to cool for 20 minutes. Eat the muffins fresh and warm. These muffins can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
