Preheat the oven to 350° and grease 24 muffin tins or line them with muffin with paper
In a large bowl, whisk the dry ingredients together.
In a medium bowl, whisk the wet ingredients together. Use a large spatula to gently fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients until they are just combined. Set aside ½ to 1 cup of chocolate chips then stir in the rest of the package.
Pour the batter into the prepared muffin tins then sprinkle the rest of the chocolate chips on top of the muffins. Bake for 22 to 27 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the muffins cool for 20 minutes, then remove them from the pan and cool completely on a wire rack.
