Chocolate Chip Muffins

Was in the mood for chocolate (surprise, suprise!) - and I wanted to use my Halloween little muffin cups so decided to bake some mini chocolate chip muffins!





The pictures of the chocolate chip muffins on bradleykitchen's blog, made me want to try them for sure!!



So made the recipe - but in mini-muffin form.

Chocolate Chip Muffins

from the Worldwide Ward Cookbook

1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar (a little less than a cup)
2 eggs
1 cup (8 oz) plain yogurt (didn't have any yogurt, so used soya milk)
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Topping

1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (forgot to add...)
2 T brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon

In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add yogurt and vanilla and mix well. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Add to creamed mixture just until moistened. Fold in chocolate chips. Fill paper lined muffin cups two-thirds full. Combine the topping ingredients and sprinkle over batter. Bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from muffin tins.

Makes 1 dozen. (made 36 mini-muffins)
