Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoon instant coffee granules
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted and cooled
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup light brown sugar packed
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla bean paste or pure vanilla extract
  • turbinado sugar as needed, optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F. Grease or line every other cup of two 12-cup muffin pans with paper liners.
  • Mix all-purpose flour, instant espresso, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and mini chocolate chips in a large bowl until combined.
  • Whisk the {cooled} melted butter, granulated sugar, light brown sugar, eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla bean paste in a medium bowl. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix the ingredients until just combined and a batter forms—do not over-mix.
  • Divide the batter between the 12 prepared muffin cups and sprinkle each muffin with turbinado sugar, if using.
  • Bake the muffins at 425°F for 5 minutes. After the first 5 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 375°F and bake for another 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the muffins cool in the muffin pan for 5 -10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely, or enjoy them while warm.
