Tips & Tricks (5)
- Chocolate Chip Distribution Magic 🍫Toss chocolate chips in a tablespoon of flour before adding to the batter to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the muffins.
- Sour Cream Secret Weapon 🥛Use room temperature sour cream to create an incredibly moist and tender muffin texture that stays fresh longer.
- Mixing Technique Mastery 🥣Mix wet and dry ingredients just until combined - overmixing will create tough, dense muffins with a rubbery texture.
- Bakery-Style Top Trick 👑Fill muffin cups to the very top and sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top before baking for a professional-looking, bakery-style muffin.
- Brown Sugar Moisture Hack 🍯Use a combination of granulated and light brown sugar to add depth of flavor and ensure maximum moisture in your muffins.
