Better Homes and Gardens Muffins (with chocolate chips)

I started making these soon after we were married (my one and only cookbook was the Better Homes and Gardens one). Anyways, I added chocolate chips to make them a sweet treat, and they do the trick on a Sunday afternoon when I want to make something easy and tasty.

1 3/4 cups flour

1/3 cup sugar

2 t. baking powder

1/4 t. salt

1 beaten egg

3/4 cup milk

1/4 cup cooking oil

1 cup chocolate chips

1. Grease or line twelve 2 1/2 inch muffin cups. Set aside.

2. In a medium bowl combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Make a well in center of flour mixture; set aside.

3. In another bowl combine egg, milk, and oil. Add egg mixture all at once to flour mixture. Stir just until moistened (batter should be lumpy). Add chocolate chips (my addition).

4. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups, filling each two-thirds full. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 18 to 20 min or unitl golden and a wooden toothpick inserted in centers come out clean. Cool in muffin cups on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Remove from muffin cups; serve warm.
