Muffin ingredients
  • ½ cup salted butter, melted room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • cup vegetable oil
  • 2 pcs eggs room temperature
  • cup sour cream room temperature
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, mix the melted butter with sugar until it’s smooth and creamy.
  3. Add the eggs, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and sour cream. Stir until all is well combined.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients. Mix gently until just combined.
  6. Pour in the milk, then add the mini chocolate chips. The batter should look thick yet soft.
  7. For the crumble, mix the room temperature butter, sugar, and flour in a separate bowl until crumbly.
  8. Line a muffin tin with paper liners. Spoon the muffin batter into each cup, filling them about ¾ full.
  9. Top each muffin with a generous sprinkle of crumble.
Baking
  1. Bake for about 20 minutes. They’re done when they’re golden and a toothpick comes out clean.

Notes

Use room temperature ingredients for best results. Mini chocolate chips melt beautifully in every bite. Alternate flour can be used for gluten-free options.
