Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
½ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1½ cups granulated sugar
2 eggs
½ cup salted butter, melted and cooled
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1½ cups buttermilk
1 cup sour cream
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, reserve a few for topping the muffins
2 cups crushed Oreo cookies, divided in half

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line 2 muffin tins with cupcake liners or spray with non-stick cooking spray.
Mix together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and sugar in a small bowl and set aside.
In a separate bowl, beat or whisk together the eggs, melted butter, vanilla extract, buttermilk, and sour cream.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir together, just until combined. There should be lumps in the batter.
Fold in the chocolate chips and half of the Oreo pieces, reserving a few of the chocolate chips and the remaining Oreos to top the muffins.
Scoop the batter into the lined muffin tin, filling each liner ¾ of the way full. Top each muffin with a few chocolate chips and some Oreo pieces.
Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the muffins comes out clean.
Cool muffins in the pan for 5 minutes. Remove muffins to a cooling rack to finish cooling.

Notes

Before diving into the recipe, gather all the necessary ingredients and ensure they are at room temperature. This helps with better ingredient incorporation and even baking.
Oven temperatures vary and may need to be recalibrated periodically to ensure they are accurate. Make sure to check your muffins at the lower end of the recommended baking time.
Do not leave the muffins to cool in the baking pan. The heat from the pan will continue to cook them, and they will dry out.
