Allow the batter to rest at room temperature for about one hour.
This important step helps the muffins rise higher while improving the texture. Resting the batter also creates bakery-style muffin tops.
Step 8: Fill the Muffin Pan
Line a muffin tray with paper liners or lightly grease the pan.
Fill each muffin cup almost to the top for tall muffins.
Add extra chocolate chips on top before baking.
Baking Instructions
Preheat your oven to:
425°F (220°C)
Bake the muffins for 5 minutes at this high temperature.
Without opening the oven door, reduce the temperature to:
375°F (190°C)
Continue baking for another 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
The high initial heat helps create tall muffin tops, while the lower temperature finishes baking the inside perfectly.
