To prepare, you typically combine the contents of the muffin mix with wet ingredients such as eggs, oil, and water as instructed on the packaging. Whisk until just combined, being careful not to overmix, which can lead to tough muffins. Spoon the batter into prepared muffin tins and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The chocolate chips within the mix melt into gooey pockets.
