Ingredients for these delicious Chocolate Chip Muffins
I don’t even need to explain how BASIC this recipe is. All your off the shelf ingredients and nothing too complicated. Just a few points to keep in mind before you bake these heavenly Chocolate Chip Muffins.
- Use butter kept at room temperature or softened butter for your muffins. And use cold and hardened butter for your crumble.
- Use castor sugar over granulated or powdered sugar. I use the brand- ‘Trust’, which is quite affordable and easily available too.
- I have used milk chocolate chips for these Chocolate Chip Muffins. You can get chocolate chips online or at a normal bakery store. Be sure to get a taste of them to ensure they are fresh.
- Use room temperature eggs for this recipe.
- Avoid using low-quality flour or cocoa powder because they are the main ingredients and will make or break your muffins.
