  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with buttermilk. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips, reserving a few for topping.
  6. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full. Top each muffin with a few extra chocolate chips.
  7. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  8. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Serve and enjoy!
