How to Make Chocolate Cherry Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, ½ cup packed brown sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  3. Add 1 cup chopped fresh or frozen cherries and 1 ¾ cups chocolate chips to the dry ingredients. Gently mix to combine.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together ½ cup milk, ¼ cup vegetable oil, and 1 large egg.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
  7. Sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup chocolate chips over the tops of the muffins.
  8. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
