Raspberry and chocolate, chocolate and raspberry… it’s all happening right now right here. In the form of fluffy, moist, gorgeous muffins.
My favorite part about these muffins is actually the chocolate chips though. But, then again, I could say that about any muffin. Or any dessert. Ever. Where are the chocolate chips??? That’s what my husband says when I make a dessert without chocolate chips. Like pumpkin bread. Recently I made a batch of beautifully moist, totally scrumptious pumpkin bread but all he could say was, where are the chocolate chips?!? So I made another batch. With scads of chocolate chips. Annnnd I ate most of it myself. Not ashamed. (My Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread does have chocolate chips though!)
These muffins are one heck of a delightful way to put raspberries to good use. But, I’m gonna let me in on a little secret… these muffins are just as fantastic without the raspberries! So if you don’t feel like running to the store to get a carton, or you run out half way through the batch, or it’s off-season for berries and you don’t particularly love the idea of taking out a second mortgage on your home just to pay for a few berries – you can make these without the raspberries and you will still absolutely fall in love with moist chocolate chip chocolate muffins! Wonderful, I know. So um, go make a batch. Now! You have no excuses.
Oh wait, you have a job and are unavoidable detained for the next 8 hours and can’t drop everything to make raspberry chocolate muffins this very instant? Weird….. I suppose any time in the next 72 hours will do.

- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 egg
- 1 cup sour cream, OR plain greek yogurt
- ½ cup milk, or half & half

- Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Pour into muffin tins. Divide raspberries and remaining 1/4 cup chocolate chips among the muffin tins (just sprinkle the chocolate chips on the tops of the batter and gently press the raspberries into the top – I used 2-3 raspberries per muffin)

Could I possibly leave out the chocolate chips and add rasberries and blueberries and walnuts insteadd
I’m sure you could! 🙂 Sounds delicious!
This made the best chocolate muffins I’ve ever had! I also forgot the vanilla because it wasn’t in the instructions but I took another reviews suggestion to add a pinch of salt. Definitely going to try sinking a few extra raspberries in them next time!
This recipe is absolutely divine!
If you follow the recipE to a “T”, be prepared to makE the most amazing muffins ever!
Thank you, Lauren!
Taste nice but the raspberries need to go in the baTTER. PUTTING the raspberries on top burns them black. Also, it makes 24 regular size muffins. Way too much batter for 12.
ah i forgot to buy the yoghurt is that ok can i just add more milk
I definitely recommend using yogurt instead of more milk! I can’t say for sure the outcome, I haven’t done that before though!
Hello Tiffany. Thanks for your sharing! I would like to ask if you are using American Standard (Cups & Quarts ) for the cup MEASUREMENT where a cup= 250ml?
Yes- US standard cup!
You are missing the vanilla extract in the Directions.
Thanks for letting me know! I’ll get it fixed.
