Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400℉.
Line a 12-cup muffin pan with muffin liners.
In a mixing bowl, combine butter and sugar. Beat until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs, sour cream, milk, and vanilla, mixing until well combined.
Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt into the batter. Stir gently until just blended, with a few flour streaks remaining. Incorporate the chocolate chips.
Evenly distribute the batter among the muffin liners using a large cookie scoop or size 20 scoop.
Optionally, sprinkle extra sugar and mini chocolate chips on top of the batter.
Bake in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, or until the muffins are risen and golden.
Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Ensure your butter and eggs are at room temperature for a better batter consistency.
Store any leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
These muffins freeze well; just place them in a zip-lock bag for later enjoyment.
