How to Make Incredible Orange Chocolate Chip Muffins
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Let eggs reach room temperature. Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy.
- Add 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing on medium speed until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
- Zest 1 large orange and add the zest to the wet ingredients. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1 cup sour cream, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Stir in ½ cup orange juice and 1 ½ cups chocolate chips. Mix on low speed for 30-45 seconds, or until just combined.
- Fill greased muffin cups about ¾ full. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. (Start checking at 12 minutes).
- Let cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
