The Mason Cottage Mocha Chocolate Chip Muffin

From THE MASON COTTAGE

Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups plain low-fat yogurt
  • 1 1/2 tbsps instant coffee
  • 10 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature)
  • Some Muffin papers

Directions

  1. Adjust oven rack to lower middle position and heat oven to 375 F.
  2.  Sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in medium bowl; set aside.
  3. Combine your instant coffee with your yogurt; set aside.
  4. Beat butter and sugar with electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add yogurt until combined.
  1. Gently fold in your dry ingredients (a cup at a time) until a smooth, thick batter just forms; Add chocolate chips.  DO NOT over beat your batter – this will make your muffins tough and you don’t want tough muffins!
  2. Use medium ice cream scoop to divide batter evenly among cups. Bake until muffins are golden brown, about 25 minutes.
  3. Set on wire rack to cool slightly, about 5 minutes. Serve warm.
