Mini Chocolate Chip Muffins

This morning a phone call woke me up. After I cleared my head a little and was about to get out of bed, Joshua (my oldest) came into my room and said they {my kids} had a surprise for me!
They had gotten up, cleaned the kitchen (ie., loaded the new dishwasher) and baked me chocolate chip muffins for breakfast…from scratch! Boy, do I love homeschooling!! {update – see this post where we added some brown sugar coffee buttercream to them… oh. my. gosh. YUMMY!!}
I love these little muffins SO much and it was a terrific way to wake up this morning! By the way, if you like breakfast recipes, be sure to look over at the Homemade Donut Holes that I posted a couple of weeks ago!
But for now, here’s our recipe…
Mini Chocolate Chip Muffins

- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 3 teaspoons. baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips)
- 1 egg
- 1 cup milk
- 1/3 cup melted butter
Instructions
- Mix together all the dry ingredients. Gently stir in the chocolate chips. In a separate bowl, combine egg, milk and butter. Stir into the dry mixture. Do not beat! Bake at 375° for 20 minutes.
- Yield – 9 extra large muffins or 4 dozen mini muffins….and who know’s how many regular muffins…somewhere in between 9 and 24…hehe. Just be warned…if you make the miniature versions, I you can easily eat a dozen before you blink your eyes!


Sounds great!! Can't wait to try them! I wonder if my kids would make them for me? LOL
These look delicious and will be trying soon. Do you grease the pan?
