Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Muffins
Jumbo-sized and studded with real semi-sweet chocolate chips, these Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Muffins are just the thing to start off your morning for breakfast or to unwind with in the afternoon for a snack!
Servings: 6 jumbo muffins
Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 Tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup butter, melted and cooled
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 Tablespoon vanilla
- 2 cups Nestlé® Toll House® Real Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels
- Coarse sugar (optional)
Instructions
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. Prepare a 6-cup jumbo-size muffin tray by spraying cups with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add chocolate chips and stir to evenly distribute.
- In a separate bowl, combine the butter, sugar, eggs, buttermilk and vanilla. Whisk well, then slowly add to the flour mixture, stirring with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, just until combined. Do not overmix.
- Divide the batter between the 6 muffin cups, filling them all the way to the top, then bake at 425 degrees for 5 minutes. Without opening the oven door, reduce the temperature to 375 degrees and continue to bake for 25-26 minutes more, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Do not overbake.
- Cool for 5 minutes, then serve.
Notes
Whole milk may be substituted for buttermilk.
For regular-size muffins, bake for 5 minutes at 425 degrees, then reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees and continue to bake for 13-14 minutes until done. Makes 14-16 muffins.
For mini muffins, bake at 375 degrees for 11-12 minutes until done. Makes about 30 mini muffins.
