How to Make Sour Cream Coffee Cake Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. Add 2 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  6. Add 1 cup sour cream and beat until smooth.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed just until combined. Do not overmix.
  8. **Topping:** In a medium bowl, combine ½ cup granulated sugar, ½ cup chopped walnuts, ½ cup chocolate chips, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  9. Fill each muffin cup halfway with batter.
  10. Sprinkle evenly with half of the topping.
  11. Spoon in the remaining batter and sprinkle with the remaining topping.
  12. Bake for 24-26 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the muffins are puffed and golden brown.
  13. Let cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes.
  14. Remove muffins from the tin and let cool completely on a wire rack.
