Notes

Pro Tips for the Best Muffins

Use Room Temperature Ingredients – This helps the batter mix evenly for the fluffiest muffins!
Don’t Overmix – Overmixing can make the muffins dense. Gently fold the ingredients just until combined.
 Use Mini Chocolate Chips – They distribute more evenly throughout the batter, so you get chocolate in every bite!
Bake Until Just Done – Overbaking can make them dry. Start checking at the 22-minute mark!
