Ingredients
2 cups Kodiak Cakes Chocolate Power Cakes mix
2 large eggs
3/4 cup milk
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup mini chocolate chips
1 tablespoon mini chocolate chips for topping
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the pan.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.
3. Add the Kodiak Cakes Chocolate Power Cakes mix, baking powder, and salt, then stir just until combined.
4. Fold in the 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips, keeping the batter evenly mixed without overworking it.
5. Divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
6. Sprinkle the remaining 1 tablespoon mini chocolate chips over the tops of the muffins.
7. Bake for 14 to 18 minutes, or until the tops spring back lightly and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
8. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Use full-fat or 2% Greek yogurt for the softest, most tender texture.
Do not overmix the batter or the muffins can turn out dense instead of fluffy.
For the best texture, remove the muffins as soon as a toothpick shows moist crumbs rather than baking until fully dry.
