Chocolate Chip Muffins

Two of my favorite things, chocolate and muffins.  The thought of a creative way to be able to have chocolate for breakfast!  Wow!

Chocolate chip muffins.

I’ve been trying different chocolate chip muffin recipes for some time adding this and that, and could never get the texture right, until now.  I got it, finally!  I hope you enjoy these moist, tender muffins as much as I do.

Creaming together butter, sugar and sour cream.

Adding in chocolate chips

I like to use pieces of square cut parchment paper to line the muffin tins.

1 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees

Spoon muffin mixture in to muffin tin filling each 3/4. Sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top
