Directions
Step 1 | |
Preheat oven to 350ºF In medium bowl, whisk together 3 cups flour, 2 teaspoons baking soda and ¼ teaspoon salt. Set aside. In large bowl, mix together 1 cup sugar, ½ cup butter, 3 eggs, 1 cup buttermilk, and a teaspoon of vanilla extract. Add flour mixture to sugar mixture. Stir until combined. Add in 2 cups chopped fresh cherries and 1 cup dark chocolate chips. Spray muffin tins with non-stick spray (or line with cupcake liners). Divide batter into 20* muffin tins(roughly ¼ cup batter in each) and bake until done (approximately 20-25 minutes). *You can divide batter among 24 muffin tins if you like. Muffins will be smaller and cooking time will be reduced by 5-10 minutes. |
