Ingredients:
– 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
– 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– 2 large eggs
– 1 cup buttermilk
– 1/2 cup vegetable oil
– 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
– 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions:
1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or spray with non-stick cooking spray.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

3. Cream Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat together the sugar and eggs until light and fluffy. Add in the buttermilk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.

4. Combine Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix as this can make the muffins tough.

5. Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold the chocolate chips into the batter.

6. Fill Muffin Tins: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.

7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

8. Cool: Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

These Double-Fudge Chocolate Muffins are best enjoyed slightly warm when the chocolate chips are still melty and gooey. Enjoy them with a glass of milk or your favorite warm beverage!
