The kids love these chocolate chip muffins, but they’ll devour Blueberry Muffins, Lemon Poppyseed Muffins, and Banana Crumb Muffins just as fast!
We Love a Portable Snack!
I love baking with the kids and a favorite is some homemade chocolate chip muffins (we’re suckers for anything with chocolate). We make Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies all the time, so it was nice to change it up and make muffins. Why we love these muffins:
Quick and easy. These chocolate chip muffins are ready in about 20 minutes! Yummy. They are so soft and moist and definitely another keeper recipe! Portable. Muffins are a great take-and-go snack and perfect for freezing for later.

How to Make Chocolate Chip Muffins
Storing Tricks
No soggy muffins! To prevent your muffins from getting soggy while storing, place a paper towel in the bottom of your airtight container, and another paper towel on top of the muffins to absorb any extra moisture. STORE. Keep homemade chocolate chip muffins in a container at room temperature for 2-3 days, or in the fridge for 5-7. FREEZE. Flash-freeze cooled chocolate chip muffin recipe on a baking sheet until they are somewhat hardened. Transfer them to a freezer bag or storage container, and store them in the freezer for a few months. Let thaw on the counter overnight before devouring.
Liners. Simple paper liners or silicone liners work well in the recipe. The higher the quality of the paper liners the less the baked muffins will stick to it when removed. Or bake the cupcakes directly in the muffin pan which creates a nice browned crust. Different-sized muffins. For jumbo muffins bake for 5 minutes at 425°F and then reduce the temperature to 350°F and bake for another 20-25 minutes. For mini muffins bake for only 10-12 minutes at 350°F. You may wish to use mini chocolate chips. (Times may vary slightly depending on your oven.) Nuts. Add chopped nuts for even more flavor and texture.
