Chocolate Chip Muffins

These are a favorite after school snack at our house.  Very quick and easy!

2 cups all-purpose flour,
1/2 cup white sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup cup milk
1 tsp. vanilla
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 egg
3/4 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
3 tablespoons white sugar
2 tablespoons brown sugar

Heat oven to 400 degrees.  Grease bottoms only of 12 muffin cups or line with baking cups.  Combine flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, chocolate chips, and salt; mix well.  In a separate bowl, combine milk, oil, vanilla and egg; blend well.  Add dry ingredients all at once; stir just until dry ingredients are moistened (batter will be lumpy.) 

Fill cups 2/3 full. Sprinkle tops of muffins before baking with a combination of 3 tablespoons sugar and 2 tablespoon brown sugar. 

Bake for 18 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 1 minute before removing from pan. Serve warm.
