My best friend has asked me for a nice muffin recipe. She likes her muffins soft and fluffy and her DH likes chocolate. S0 here it is for you, Sharon, Chocolate chip muffins.
Ingredients
115 gm (4 oz) butter at room temperature
70 gm (2½ oz) caster sugar
30 gm (1 oz) dark brown sugar
2 eggs at room temperature
215 gm (7½ oz) plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
125 ml (4 floz) milk
plain chocolate chips
Method
1. Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F). Sift flour and baking powder twice.
2. Cream butter until soft. Add both sugars and heat until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time.
3. Fold flour into butter mixture. Alternatively with the milk. Spoon mixture into muffin cups and sprinkle chocolate chips on top, then cover with a spoonful of the batter.
4. Bake until lightly coloured, about 25 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes before turning out.

Ok, remember to let me know how it turns out for you.
Hi Hugbear
May i know if i want double chocolate chip muffin, how should i adjust the flour combination.
Thanks
You can try substituting 30 gm of flour with cocoa powder.
Lee Lee, can I substitute the chocolate chips to fresh blueberry? Any modifications to the recipe due to the substitution of blueberry? Thanks & regards.
Sophia, just substitute with blueberry. There is no need to adjust anything else. But if you are using dry blueberry, do soak them in water or liquor for abt an hour to soften it.
hugbear,
i tried today but i think something miss out, i prefer very heavy taste, so is this recipe miss out of essence? the muffin is fluffy, i like it but about the taste..... can i add some vanilla essence?
Hi Jessi.c, yes, please by all means add vanilla essence for your own preference.

I tried baking this today. But I dun no what went wrong. It does does not turn out fluffy and soft enough. Like those sold in the confectionary. Could you advise me on this? Should I use self raising flour instead or could it be double acting baking agent I used.
thanks
Diana
