Chocolate Chip Muffins

3 Jan 2019 Home, Recipes

Baking has become one of our favorite things to do in the winter, especially in our new kitchen! It was the one thing I missed the most when we were under construction so I feel like we’re making up for lost time 🙂

We made these chocolate chip muffins last night and they were SO yummy, not on the healthy side but more of a desert/treat. Also, we’re trying to put some meat on Brian’s bones so I’m constantly trying to think of high calorie snacks in addition to big healthy meals to give him and these were definitely a hit! They begged for me to pack them in their lunch boxes today so they could show their friends what we made last night, so cute.

Here are the ingredients:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1⁄3 cup light-brown sugar, packed
  • 1⁄3 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
  • 2⁄3 cup milk
  • 1⁄2 cup butter, melted and cooled
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/2 cup of milk chocolate chips

Instructions:Preheat oven to 400°F.

  • Grease twelve muffin cups.
  • In a large bowl, stir together flour, sugars, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, stir together milk, eggs, butter, and vanilla until blended.
  • Make a well in center of dry ingredients.
  • Add milk mixture and stir just to combine.
  • Stir in chocolate chips.
  • Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups.
  • bake for 15 minutes
  • Cool for 5 minutes.
  • Serve warm or completely cool.

Enjoy, friends!

We’re currently in Phase 1 of our Costa Rican ad We’re currently in Phase 1 of our Costa Rican adventure. This is the two week decompression period where we train our bodies and minds to slow down (this is more for me than anyone else), and let me tell you, I’m lapping it up.  We’re spending all day outside at the beach, going to bed early, eating lots of fresh fruit and healthy foods, swimming in the ocean, I’m working out and meditating in the mornings, and having fun together. For someone who is usually always in high gear, this part is my gift to myself 🐚 

We are staying at a beautiful place in papagayo with @exclusiveresorts and it feels very luxurious and restorative. 

The kids are already thriving. Being together 24/7 comes with its arguments and fights but they are learning how to just be with each other and with their crazy little brother. They’re helping a lot with him, learning a little Spanish, surfing, writing in their journals, and meeting kids from all over the world who are staying here as well. 

I’m letting us get pampered for this phase, and it feels really good. 

Thanks for coming along, I hope your year is off to an amazing start! Is there anything specific you’d like me to share about while we’re in this phase? I was thinking about sharing my morning workouts and meditations, but let me know!
Recently, I downloaded the Melissa Wood health app Recently, I downloaded the Melissa Wood health app @melissawoodtepperberg @melissawoodhealth and so far I’m loving the workouts. I try and do one every morning. They’re super quick so sometimes I do two. I like that they are gentle but hard. They incorporate a lots of yoga, pilates, breathing, stretching, balancing and all that good stuff. You can see from the videos I’m pretty shaky in the first couple clips, that balance is tough but I’m building up my strength, I can feel it 💪🏻
