Ingredients
  

  • 1 ⅔ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips divided for melting and folding into batter
  • ¾ cup unsalted butter cubed for melting with chocolate
  • ⅓ cup neutral oil such as canola or vegetable for moisture
  • 5 large eggs room temperature for smooth blending
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar for sweetness
  • ¾ cup packed dark brown sugar for depth and chewiness
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract enhances chocolate flavor
  • 1 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour sifted for light texture
  • ⅓ cup cocoa powder unsweetened sifted for smooth batter
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder for lift
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda for structure
  • ⅓ teaspoon salt balances sweetness
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips optional for extra chocolatey pockets

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly mixed.
  3. Melt the butter in a microwave or using a double boiler until just melted. Stir in 1 ⅔ cups of chocolate chips until fully smooth, then pour into a large bowl.
  4. Add both brown sugar and granulated sugar to the melted chocolate mixture. Stir for 1–2 minutes until thoroughly combined.
  5. Pour in the oil and whisk until fully incorporated and smooth.
  6. Once the mixture is warm but not hot, whisk in the eggs and vanilla extract for 2–3 minutes until glossy and even.
  7. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture with a spatula until just combined. The batter should be thick and fudgy.
  8. Gently fold in the remaining 1 cup chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  9. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin liners, filling each cup generously. Optionally, sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top.
  10. Bake in the preheated oven for 25–35 minutes. For gooey centers, check at 25 minutes; for firmer muffins, bake up to 35 minutes.
  11. Allow muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes, then gently loosen them with a knife and transfer to a wire rack.
