I’ve been slacking in the baking department lately. My apologies. It definitely isn’t because I’ve lost my sweet tooth, but has every reason to do with a crazy schedule the past few weeks. My big sister turned 30 last week, and we decided to take a trip to Ireland to celebrate the occasion. Between the planning, packing and the actual trip – I’ve had zero free time. The trip was FANTASTIC, but now that I’m back to reality, I’ve got to make up some lost ground with this blog! What better way than to start off with my favorite go-to combination: peanut butter and chocolate…
2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
6 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled
1/2 cup peanut butter (I used smooth)
2 large eggs
1 cup milk (I used skim)
3/4 cup chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners, and set it aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and brown sugar.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, peanut butter, eggs and milk. Pour half of the flour mixture into the wet mixture and stir until well combined. Repeat with the rest of the flour mixture. Next stir in chocolate chips.
Divide batter into your paper-lined muffin tin. Each cup should be filled to the top.
Bake for 17-20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
