These double chocolate muffins are loaded with chocolate flavors. They are perfectly moist and fluffy, with an irresistible crunchy muffin top!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cup (180g) all-purpose flour
  • ⅔ cup (60g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • ½ cup (120 ml) canola oil
  • ¾ cup (180g) plain yogurt
  • ½ cup (120 ml) full-fat milk, lukewarm*
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (175g) chocolate chips
  • 2 eggs, at room temperature

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a muffin pan with paper liners. Set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Whisk together and set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl whisk together the eggs, vanilla, vegetable oil, and yogurt. Gradually pour the lukewarm milk, whisking as you go.
  4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, and mix together using a rubber spatula until just combined (do not overmix). Fold in about ¾ of the chocolate chips until evenly distributed, reserving the remaining ¼ for the muffin tops. 
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared muffin pan and sprinkle with the remaining chocolate chips. Bake at 425°F (220°C) for 5 minutes then reduce to 350°F (180°C) and continue baking for about 15 minutes or until the centers are set A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean. Let cool in the muffin pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Notes

* Warm up the milk in the microwave for a few seconds until just warm to the touch. This will help when mixing the ingredients together, in particular when adding the dry ingredients with the cocoa powder.
