Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup whole milk
• 0.33 cup vegetable oil
• 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chunks
• 0.25 cup additional chocolate chunks for topping (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups lightly.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until the batter comes together. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Fold in the chocolate chunks gently to evenly distribute them throughout the batter.

Step 6

Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full. If desired, sprinkle additional chocolate chunks on top for extra decadence.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out with only a few moist crumbs.

Step 8

Remove the muffin tin from the oven and allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Serve warm for the ultimate gooey chocolate experience or at room temperature for a perfectly rich treat.
