Ingredients
  

  • 1 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour (208 g)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar (200 g)
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon table salt
  • ½ cup natural cocoa powder (50 g)
  • ½ cup very hot or boiling water (118 ml)
  • ½ cup canola or vegetable oil (118 ml)
  • 1 cup sour cream (240 g) (see note)
  • 2 large eggs lightly beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (340 g) divided (I like to use a blend of mini and regular-sized chocolate chips)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375F (190C) and line a 12-count muffin tin (see note) with paper liners.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking soda and salt.
  • Pour cocoa powder into a separate heatproof bowl or large measuring cup. Carefully pour very hot or boiling water overtop and whisk until mixture is smooth.
  • Add oil to cocoa powder mixture and whisk in (it will separate, this is fine) then add sour cream, eggs, and vanilla extract and whisk until thoroughly combined.
  • Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and use a spatula to gently fold together until about halfway combined. Add 1 ½ cups (255g) of chocolate chips and continue to fold batter together until chocolate chips are well distributed and batter is just combined.
  • Portion batter into muffin tin, filling ⅔ of the way full, then sprinkle muffin tops with remaining chocolate chips.
  • Bake in center rack of 375F (190C) oven for 17-18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist fudgy crumbs.
  • Allow muffins to cool in their tin for 10-15 minutes before carefully removing to a cooling rack to cool completely.
