Chocolate Chip Muffins– these are a huge hit in our home. The grandkids especially love these!

preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line every other muffin tin with a liner.

Ingredients:

Combine in a bowl…

1 1/2 cup all flour

3/4 cup light brown sugar

1/2 tsp salt

1 1/2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

Lightly whisk all these ingredients together until blended.

In a separate bowl, combine:

1/3 cup veg oil

1 large egg

1/3 cup milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup sour cream

Add the wet ingredients to the dry and combine JUST until moist. Overstirring can result in heavy tasting muffins and flatter tops.

stir in 3/4 cup chocolate chips. Fold in until just combined, being sure not to overstir again!

Fill muffin liners 3/4 full. I like to do every other muffin tin and fill the others about 1/2 full with water. This adds a little moisture to the over while baking resulting in more even baking and a less dry finished product.

Bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes. until tops are golden brown. Remove from tins immediately to cool.
