Ingredients
- 2 1/8 cups all-purpose flour Notes 1,2
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips Note 3
- 1 egg large
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter soft
- 3/4 cup Bailey's
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius/ 360 degrees Fahrenheit (fan oven 160 degrees Celsius/ 320 degrees Fahrenheit) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
- Dry ingredients: Mix flour, baking powder, salt, and chocolate chips.
- Cream: In another bowl, beat the egg, sugar, and soft butter until creamy.
- Wet ingredients: In a jug, whisk together Bailey's, milk, and vanilla extract.
- Combine: Alternating, fold the flour mixture and the liqueur mixture into the creamed egg and butter.
- Divide the batter between the prepared muffin cups; they should be about ¾ full.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
- Let rest in the pan for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
Notes
- Use a digital kitchen scale to measure the ingredients; it guarantees for best results.
- I prefer to use cake flour (without raising agents); it makes the muffins lighter. Of course, all-purpose is fine as well, but cake flour is better.
- Either milk or bittersweet chocolate chips. Chopped chocolate can be used instead.
