Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cups Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cups Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 2 Eggs
• 1 cups Sour cream
• 0.25 cups Vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.

Step 2

In a large bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to combine.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, sour cream, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix—the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Fold in the chocolate chips with a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, evenly divide the batter among the 12 muffin liners, filling each about 3/4 of the way full.

Step 7

Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out with only a few moist crumbs attached.

Step 8

Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Serve the muffins warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
