PRINTABLE RECIPE: 🖨️thestayathomec... 🖨️
🍴🍴🍴🍴🍴🍴🍴🍴🍴
✅Ingredients
• ½ cup butter, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• ½ cup milk
• 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
✅Instructions
1️⃣ Line a muffin tin with paper liners. Lightly grease paper liners with nonstick cooking spray.
2️⃣ 00:00:19 - In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to cream together butter and sugar, about two minutes.
3️⃣ 00:00:34 - Beat in eggs until combined. Add in the baking powder, salt, and vanilla and mix briefly.
4️⃣ 00:00:56 - Add in half of flour, mix with hand mixer until just combined, then add in the milk, stirring to combine. Scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl and add in the remaining flour until just combined.
5️⃣ 00:01:36 - Add the chocolate chips to the batter and use a rubber spatula to gently fold them in.
6️⃣ 00:01:42 - Divide the batter up amongst the 12 muffins. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Let the batter rest while the oven preheats.
7️⃣ 00:02:23 - Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Reduce the heat in the oven to 350 degrees after 7 minutes. Watch the muffins closely as cooking times may vary depending on your oven.
8️⃣ 00:02:31 - Let muffins cool for 5 minutes in the pan before removing them and transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

PERFECT! I listened to one of the comments on here saying to leave the muffins in at 425 for only FIVE minutes then drop the temp to 375 for the remainder 15 minutes & they came out PERFECT! I almost left them in for 5 more minutes but then decided not to. They were the perfect amount of crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.

Okay

[@emilybonitillo6301]

Thank you so much for your recipe! I did great the first time I tried it! To those who are having burnt muffins, you could set your temp. at 180C and bake it for 25 minutes. Of course you have to preheat your oven at 180C for 10 minutes. 😊 It tasted really good btw!

[@nurain3995]

Thank you for the tips i really need it

[@Music-xb2lx]

Omg these came out great, thank you for the recipe. I just changed the temp settings a bit, started out with 425°F and kept the muffins in the oven with that temp for 5 mins, then lowered it to 350° to cook them fully for about 20 minutes, they were fully baked, just not the golden brown color I wanted so, I cranked up the heat to 400°F in the end for just about 2 minutes, as soon as they got the perfect color, I pulled them out. So fluffy and delicious, great recipe.

[@HappierHazel]

I just made these muffins for my family! It was so easy and delicious. The house smelled amazing and the muffins had an amazing texture!

[@Thestayathomechef]

Wonderful! Happy you liked them (:

Almost forgot: Leave the oven to 425 for only FIVE Minutes, THEN turn it down to 375, otherwise the bottoms will burn...

Not true

I made this just now. Tastes perfect but my 1st batch were uneven and some batter even drifted out, the top is also a little burnt. For 2nd batch i adjusted the temp to 350F only, and baked for around 23min,,they came out perfect. Crisp on the top and fluffy inside. Thanks for the recipe. Gonna make this again for my kiddo.

[@puffy-ducky4108]

Really good muffins! Made 12, already had 3! They were a bit dry for me but probably because this is my first time making muffins! I used a stand mixer instead of a hand mixer and it turned out with I think the same result and if any people are reading the comments for reviews, this was amazing and simple. And also if the batter looks a little yellow after you mixed the eggs, extract and baking powder, I think that's fine. Don't know. If the muffins came out dry for me, then just dunk them in milk. They're like cookies...., but better. And if you're gonna use a stand mixer like I did, set it to 1. Comes out with the best result.... I think.

[@awesomealyssa710rblx4]

I’ve been watching a lot of muffin recipes because I want to make muffins some time soon but in the videos they were talking about over mixing which happens if you mix it to long I think

[@LaadeeV]

This is an AMAZING muffin. I'm can actually TASTE the butter in the final result. My oven cooks fast, so I only needed 15 minutes of bake time. Can't wait to make them again!

[@ekasusilo]

This is extremely easy to make! I just made myself but with half amount of the sugar, and it tastes just exactly what I wanted. Less sweet and tastes great! Thank you for sharing this delicious recipe!

I made that muffin using an air fryer after seeing it on google and love it. It easily became my fav muffin

[@Thestayathomechef]

Happy it worked for you (:

[@lavendertheflower4352]

Just made these muffins. Came out delicious, following the directions in the description. As everyone else said, you have to turn the temp down after 5-7 mins, or else they’ll burn. It’s mentioned after the fact in the directions. The video states that this recipe makes 12 muffins, but I followed the measurements to a T, and only got 11. Had to scrape at the little bit of excess for a while to get that last muffin. Next time I make these, I’ll have to figure out how much extra I’ll need to make the full 12. Really good and moist, not dry like another user said. Also, I suggest mini chocolate chips instead of big.

[@cu12351]

That’s interesting, I followed the exact same measurements and got exactly 12 with a little bit of batter left for around half a cupcake. Maybe your measurements could have been a bit off or had slightly bigger cupcake liners.

[@erandinn8780]

Hi, if u let gluten in the batter relax, won’t the cupcakes will b dense? Another video it said, do not let batter rest n do not over mix, so the cupcakes will become fluffy n light! Which is it? Does gluten makes batter light or dense?

[@Thestayathomechef]

The point of resting is to allow the batter time to hydrate, thicken, and develop gluten. This gives the muffin structure necessary to get a domed muffin top. Muffins should be a different texture than a light and fluffy cupcake.

THANK YOU ITS PERFECT!!! I decided to do almond ones to and it's perfect

[@jimothee3815]

Baking soda can be substituted for baking powder, but it requires more than just swapping one for the other. Baking soda is 3 times stronger than baking powder, so if a recipe calls for 1 tbsp of baking powder, you’ll want to use 1 tsp of baking soda. You will also need to add 1 tsp of an acid (such as vinegar or lemon juice) per every 1/2 tsp baking soda to balance out the base.

Cettina Accetta how much butter did u use I mean in gramm

[@cettinaaccetta1819]

Ummi Sohayb Hello Ummi the 1/2 cup butter I measured it to be 80 to 100 grams and the oven temperatures 425 degrees in Celsius is 220 Celsius and 350 degrees is 180 Celsius. Have fun making them, we have only 4 left which we are taken them to my grandchildren tonight! 😁😉

[@ummisohayb9661]

Thank u very much for your quick answer May I ask u something else plz If a recipe calls for 1/3 cup of butter melted , do I need to Put solid butter and measure 1/3 of the cup and then melt it Or I melt it and measure 1/3 cup of it out Thanks a lot and greetingsfrom Germany

[@cettinaaccetta1819]

Ummi Sohayb Yes, that is right measure the butter in a 1/3 cup and then spoon it out into a small saucepan or microwave and melt it on low heat. Then add it to the recipe you are making. Hope you had success with the muffins. Kind Regards, Cettina.

[@ummisohayb9661]

Cettina Accetta Thanks a lot 😍😙😍
