Chocolate Chip Muffins

Hubby and I are off on a road trip to spend Mother’s Day weekend with #1 son, d-i-l, and the grandkids—not necessarily in that order!  Of course, I will show up bearing goodies.

After mulling over what treat might score me the most Nana points, I decided to downsize a favorite chocolate chip muffin recipe to mini—the perfect size for little hands.  I hadn’t made them in a very long time and decided it was time to break out the recipe once more and also share while I was at it.

These chocolate chip muffins have a tender crumb and are equally good with a glass of milk or a cup of coffee.  You don’t need to drag out your mixer.  Dry ingredients are whisked, and liquid ingredients are beaten by hand first before being added to the dry.  As with almost all muffin batters, you do not want to overmix as that will cause the muffins to become tough.  You stir just enough to incorporate the ingredients before gently stirring in the chocolate chips.  Be sure to use mini chocolate chips.  It’s mini all the way—mini chips in the mini muffins for mini people!

Hope all you moms enjoy your special day.  I know I will!
