Chocolate Chocolate Chip Muffins

Ingredients

• 6 , 1 ounce
• 0.33 cups unsalted butter
• 0.75 cups buttermilk
• 0.5 cups white sugar
• 1 egg
• 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1.67 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C). Line 12 muffin cups with papers.

2. 2

   In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the semisweet chocolate together with the butter. Let stand until cooled, about 10 minutes.

3. 3

   Lightly beat the egg. In a small bowl, stir together the chocolate-butter mixture with the buttermilk, sugar, egg, and vanilla, until blended well.

4. 4

   In a large bowl, stir together flour, soda, and salt. Make a hole in the center of the dry ingredients, pour in the chocolate mixture, and stir until just combined. Stir in the mini chocolate chips. Spoon the batter into the lined muffin cups.

5. 5

   Bake at 400 degrees F (205 degrees C) for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean. Remove muffin tin from oven and let stand at least 5 minutes, before removing the muffins and letting them cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or cooled; can be frozen as well.
