Chocolate Chip Muffins

 On Wednesday 21st of June we were making chocolate muffin with chocolate chips . The first thing we have to do is separate. The dry ingredient from the wet ingredients. the dry ingredients are 1 and a half S.R.F, quarter cup of coco powder and 50 grams of chocolate chips. The wet ingredients are half a cup of sugar, half a cup of milk, half a cup oil and one egg and you would need cupcake liner. You would need to do the dry ingredients in a small bowl and the wet ingredients in a big bowl. Put the ingredients in the bowl in order, then you turn you oven to 180 degree and put your muffin batter in your cupcake liner while your oven is heating up. The you would need a tooth pick to poke in the middle and if something comes out you leave it the oven for a few minutes and if nothing comes out then you can take it out.
