I got this recipe from the Creative Cook's Cookbook. Their recipes have never disappointed me. Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup butter, softened |
1/2 cup sugar |
2 large eggs |
1/2 cup buttermilk |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Grease 10 standard muffin cups.
3. In a small bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; mix thoroughly.
4. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer set on medium speed, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
5. Beat in eggs and buttermilk until well blended.
6. Stir in flour mixture just until blended, being careful not to overmix.
7. Divide batter between 2 bowls.
8. Stir vanilla into 1 bowl of batter.
9. Stir melted chocolate into remaining bowl of batter.
10. Spoon the vanilla batter into one side of each prepared muffin cup, filling the cups two-thirds full.
11. Spoon the chocolate batter into the other half of each muffin cup.
12. Fill the 2 empty cups with water for even baking.
13. Bake muffins until a toothpick inserted in center of one comes out clean, 15-17 minutes.
14. Transfer the pan to a wire rack; let muffins cool for 5 minutes.
15. Turn muffins onto the rack; cool completely.
16. Note: To jazz these up, top half of a muffin with chocolate icing and the other half with white icing.
17. Also, you can make marbled muffins by swirling the two batters together.
