Ingredients

• 1.75 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.75 cup brewed coffee (cooled)
• 0.5 cup whole milk
• 0.5 cup vegetable oil
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup chocolate chips (semisweet or dark)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups with non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, whisk together the cooled brewed coffee, milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, gently stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; some lumps are fine.

Step 5

Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.

Step 6

Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 to 3/4 full.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 16–18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean or with only a few moist crumbs.

Step 8

Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan 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.
