Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 cup milk
½ cup butter, at room temperature
1 ½ cups white sugar
4 large eggs
2 teaspoons lemon extract
½ teaspoon lemon zest
1 ½ cups chopped fresh strawberries
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
12 slices fresh strawberry
1 tablespoon white sugar

Steps:

  • Mix lemon juice with as much milk as needed to measure 1 cup; let the soured milk stand for 5 minutes before using.
  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Line 24 muffin tins with paper liners.
  • Cream together the butter and 1 1/2 cups sugar in a large bowl.
  • Beat in the eggs, one at a time; add the lemon extract.
  • Gradually stir in the lemon zest and soured milk.
  • Gently fold in the chopped strawberries.
  • Mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in another bowl.
  • Stir the butter mixture into the flour mixture until dry ingredients are just moistened.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups to about 2/3 full.
  • Place a strawberry slice atop each muffin and sprinkle with some of the 1 tablespoon white sugar.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool in the pans for 5 minutes before serving warm.

These muffins were really easy to make and they turned out great! I used frozen strawberries and they worked just fine. I'll definitely be making these again.

These muffins were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

These muffins were a bit dry. I think I overbaked them. I'll try baking them for less time next time.
