What you'll love about this chocolate chip muffin recipe
- flavors : the deliciousness of chocolate chips in a soft muffin!
- texture : if you eat the chocolate chip muffins while they are still warm, the outside will be slightly crunchy while the inside will be very soft.... They will stay soft for several days!
- difficulty level : this is a quick recipe to make for a snack, for example. I use my muffin tin for cooking with paper boxes which I put in the bottom of the mold, to facilitate unmolding and tasting afterwards. But if you prefer, you can bake directly in the mold, without a case.

The choice of ingredients
- chocolate chips : for this chocolate chip muffin recipe, I prefer classic chips that are quite small, that way you get some in every bite! I even add some on top just before baking (it's even prettier when they come out of the oven!)
- all-purpose flour : it's T55 flour, so it's all-purpose. It's really the best for making muffins.
- sucre : I make a mixture of caster sugar and brown sugar, each has its importance in terms of the chemistry of the cake, so I advise you to keep the proportions.

My tips for making successful chocolate chip muffins
- for a soft result, your ingredients must be at room temperature: eggs, milk, warmed melted butter. If your milk comes out of the refrigerator, microwave it for a few seconds.
- to ensure a nice dome like muffins in bakeries, two things are important: the heat shock at the start of cooking, and the fact of filling only one cavity out of two, to allow them to benefit from all the heat of the oven.
- add nuggets just before baking : this gives an even more delicious side to your chocolate chip muffins!
How to store your chocolate chip muffins?
If you taste them within 24 hours, I advise you to leave them at room temperature, without closing them (like in a bakery in fact). They are so good still a little warm!
If you prefer to eat them later, you can put them in a airtight container, at room temperature (away from heat all the same), up to about 4 days.

- 480 g flour T55
- 180 g granulated sugar
- 50 g light brown sugar
- 4 cc level spoons of baking powder
- 1 cc level of salt
- 1 large pinch of cinnamon
- 4 large eggs at room temperature
- 240 g whole milk at room temperature
- 115 g neutral oil type sunflower, rapeseed...
- 55 g melted and warmed sweet butter
- 3 cc natural vanilla extract
- 300 g chocolate chips
- In a bowl, mix the flour, caster sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, salt and cinnamon.
- In another bowl, quickly mix the eggs then add the milk, oil, warmed melted butter and vanilla.
- Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients in four batches, using a whisk to start and then a spatula when the batter thickens. Do not mix more than necessary: just enough to no longer see any flour.
- Lastly, add the chocolate chips, taking care to keep about 50g for decoration.
- Let the dough rest, covered with a cloth, at room temperature for 15 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 220° traditional heat. Cooking is done in two batches. Place 6 paper cases in your muffin tin, leaving empty space between each (hot air needs to circulate for better baking).
- Using an ice cream scoop, fill each cup with batter right to the top (see my step-by-step photo). Finally, add sprinkles on top.
- Bake for 7 minutes at 220°C (175°F), then reduce the temperature to 12°C (XNUMX°F) without opening the oven door, for about XNUMX minutes. This varies depending on the oven. The muffins should be golden brown. Test for doneness using a wooden skewer: if it comes out dry or with a few crumbs, then it's done.
- Repeat the operation with the remaining dough (starting at a high temperature).
- Allow the muffins to cool in the pan before turning them out onto a cooling rack.






I've done it several times already.

Hello
Can the recipe be made in the cake factory?
Hello Sandrine, I have absolutely no idea, I don't use this type of device. See you soon :)
Thank you Lilie Bakery for this amazing recipe, as always!!!
I just made a batch of 15 muffins that have never looked so good and are delicious!
Oh great Claire! Thanks for your feedback :) See you soon
I just made the recipe. They are delicious. However, I respected the proportions but it made me 18 muffins. For 2, it's a bit much ;-) but they will still be eaten!!
Hello Elisabeth, thank you for your feedback! If you fill the molds to the top as shown in my photo, the quantity indicated in the recipe is correct. If you fill them less, you end up with more. See you soon :)
Hello, is the cinnamon absolutely necessary? Isn't the taste too strong?
Thank you
Hi, it adds a little zing, but you can do without it or increase the amount of vanilla. See you soon :)
