The word \u2018Loaded\u2019 has so many uses in the culinary world, but in this recipe it means only one thing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Depending on what type of food you\u2019re ordering at a restaurant, if there is ever a \u2018loaded\u2019 option, let\u2019s face it, you\u2019re getting it! Whether it\u2019s a Baked Potato, Nachos, or a Pizza, ramping up the ingredients with the Loaded option is always the go. When it comes to these Chocolate Chip Muffins however, Loaded only means one thing: more Chocolate!

<\/p>\n\n\n

If you bite into a Chocolate Chip Muffin the expectation is that there\u2019s a generous portion of Chocolate Chips in each bite. You want there to be a beautiful mixture of Dark Chocolate scattered generously throughout the cakey batter. Well, for these Loaded Chocolate Chip Muffins we can guarantee there is a serious volume of Chocolate Chips in there!

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These Muffins are absolutely stacked with Chocolate Chips, ensuring that the most Chocolate obsessed people you know will be more than satisfied! Even though these Muffins are filled to the gills with Chocolate Chips, they are still amazingly light. The beautiful Batter offers a light and flavorful contrast to the richness of the Chocolate, making for the perfect bite every time

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to make Loaded Chocolate Chip Muffins<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This is a relatively straight forward recipe when it comes to baking. You will need to create two mixtures first, a dry mixture (consisting of Flour, Baking Soda, Baking Powder, Cinnamon, and Salt), and a wet mixture (consisting of Milk, Eggs, Oil, Butter, Sugar, Sour Cream, and Vanilla Extract)

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once both your wet and dry ingredients are nicely incorporated, simply pour the wet ingredients straight into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Best to use your larger bowl for the dry ingredients to ensure there is no overflow!

<\/p>\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

When mixing the wet and dry ingredients together it is important not to over-mix! Doing so will result in a tough batter which is not pleasant to eat. The easiest way to avoid this occurring is to avoid using a whisk (and definitely any kind of electric mixers) when combining the ingredients

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best method is to fold the ingredients together using a spatula. Do this slowly until a smooth batter has formed. The folding technique allows more air to get into the batter, resulting in a lighter, more airy result (makes sense!)

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Loading up the Chocolate Chips and then Baking<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The final step before baking is to load up those Chocolate Chips. Simply pour them all straight into the Batter and mix them through. Again, again overmixing, but ensure that there\u2019s an even distribution of Chocolate throughout the Batter

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can either grease the Muffin pan, or line it with cupcake paper. Then simply pour the Batter straight into a Muffin Pan for baking. Fill the batter right to the top and then top the batter with a dusting of Sugar before it goes into the oven to bake

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bake your Loaded Chocolate Chip Muffins at 425F for about 5 minutes, then drop the heat down to 350 for the remaining 25 minutes. We increase the baking time at the beginning to help form a beautiful crust on the Muffins

<\/p>\n\n\n

\"Muffins
Once these delicious Muffins are cooked, leave them in the pan for 10 minutes at room temperature, allowing them to cool<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Once baked, leave the Muffins at room temperature for about 10 minutes to cool slightly before removing them from the Muffin pan and diving in! This is always the toughest part of the process, as the temptation to eat them immediately is so great. Especially since they will be filling the house with the most amazing aroma as they are cooking

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How many Muffins will this recipe produce?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This recipe will yield a total of 12 standard Muffins. If you wish to produce more Muffins with the existing ingredient volumes, just reduce the baking time for a few minutes. Same goes for larger Muffins, just increase the baking time for a few minutes

<\/p>\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019d recommend sticking to the existing ingredient quantities instead of trying to adjust them to yield more \/ less Muffins. Baking is a very fine artform, and the quantities of ingredients used need to be spot on for the best result. Adjusting the quantities is going to cause for some potential chaos, so we\u2019d recommend avoiding this

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to make more, simply whip up 2 batches. You can bake them both at the same time, so it won\u2019t be a load of extra work required. This recipe is great for bigger groups and is guaranteed to be a hit amongst kids and adults alike!<\/p>\n\n\n
