Chocolate Chip Muffins
What you need
- 2 cups flour
- ¾ cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup milk
- chocolate chips
Salt, pepper, water and oil don’t count. Mom always had those.
What you do
Mix wet and dry separately, then combine with about ten stirs only — lumps are fine. Fold in the chips, fill cases two-thirds, bake twenty minutes.
How it feels to make
Ten stirs and stopping while it still looks lumpy goes against everything in you.
Mom wrote on the back
Stop mixing while it's still lumpy. Smooth batter makes tough muffins.
