Chocolate Chip Muffins!
I'm not sure if I've put this in my journal before. I don't think I have, it's certainly not tagged.
I'm just waiting for a tray of muffins to bake so here's the recipe:
Ingredients:
2 cups plain flour
1/3 cup packed brown sugar ('packed' means to pack it down into the cup, not how the sugar comes from the store)
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2/3 cup milk
1/2 cup melted butter
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 tsp vanilla
1 pkg chocolate chips (I generally put 2 100g bags in, or a smashed up 200g bar of Bournville. The original recipe includes an optional 1/2 cup of pecans but I ignore that as crazy talk)
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line muffin tin with cupcake papers.(Don't know where I read this piece of advice, but I always line my muffin tins with two paper cases)
In a large bowl, stir together flour, sugars, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, stir together milk, eggs, butter, and vanilla until blended. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients; add milk mixture and stir just to combine. Stir in chocolate chips.
Spoon batter into muffin cups and bake 15-20 minutes. Cool 5 minutes before removing from cups. Eat!
This recipe comes from the Inn at the Park in Louisville, Kentucky. trampledamage found it online years ago. I've never been but if you're ever in Louisville, stay there. If nothing else, you'll get darned fine muffins!
