CHEF'S CHOICE MUFFINS (CHOCOLATE CHIP, BLUEBERRY, OR LEMON POPPY
I got this recipe from my pastry chef class in high school. They're best right out of the oven when they're still warm and very fluffy. The recipe calls for 6 GIANT muffins, but I like to make 24 cupcake sized ones. I'm putting only the chocolate chips under the ingredient list because of nutrition info. I figure the chocolate chip version is the worst for you, so the others only get healthier =). (The amounts for the other versions are under directions as well as an additional topping of cinnamon sugar).

Steps:
- *NOTE: 15 tablespoons sugar is ONE CUP sugar MINUS one tablespoon (this is what the recipe calls for but cannot be entered under recipezaar's format).
- other flavor options: 1 1/2 cups blueberries tossed with 1 tablespoon flour OR 3 tablespoons poppy seeds with 1 tablespoon lemon zest. You can also dip the tops of the finished muffins in melted butter and then a mixture of 1/4 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon (not included in the ingredients because I don't do this).
- Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 375°F.
- Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl; set aside.
- Cream butter, sugar, and vanilla in a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about two minutes.
- Add eggs, one at a time, to creamed mixture and beat well after each addition.
- Beat in one half of the dry ingredients.
- Beat in one third of yogurt.
- Beat in remaining dry ingredients in two batches, alternating with the yogurt, until incorporated (do not over beat).
- Add one of the Chef's Choice ingredients into the finished batter.
- Spray muffin tin lined with cupcake papers with non-stick cooking spray (I make 24 smaller muffins).
- Divide batter evenly among muffin cups.
- Bake at 375°F for 25 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
- Remove from oven and let sit a few minutes in the pan until cool enough to move to a cooling rack.
