There’s nothing more classic than a banana muffin. But when you stuff it with chocolate chunks and drizzle more on top, it’s transformed into the best muffin ever!

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F.
Spray 15 muffin cups with nonstick baking spray and set aside.
In a stand mixer, cream the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, 3 minutes.
8 tbsp (1 stick) unsalted butter, ¾ cup light brown sugar, ¼ cup granulated sugar
With the mixer on low, add the eggs one at a time, mixing for 30 seconds after each addition. Add vanilla extract, and mix to incorporate. Mix in the Greek yogurt and mashed banana for 30 seconds.
2 large eggs, 1 tsp vanilla extract, ¾ cup plain Greek yogurt (or sour cream), 1 cup mashed banana (about 3 ripe bananas)
With the mixer off, add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix until just incorporated, about 1 minute. There may be a few small lumps.
2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour, 1 tbsp baking powder, ½ tsp baking soda, 1 tsp kosher salt
Chop the chocolate into pieces. Leave the fine crumbs on the cutting board and add only the pieces. Fold with a spatula.
8 oz semi-sweet chocolate
Portion the batter evenly into the 15 prepared muffin cups. Bake in the preheated oven until domed and a skewer inserted into a muffin comes out clean, about 24-28 minutes.
Remove from oven and cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Remove from pan and cool completely on a rack.
