Cherry chocolate chip muffins

Here are some muffins that I grew up eating.  They're so easy to make, extremely chocolaty and filled with delicious dark cherries, and I always find myself coming back for seconds (or thirds...)!

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups flour

1/3 cup sugar

2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

1 egg

1/2 cup milk

1/4 cup vegetable oil

1 cup (1/2 bag) mini chocolate chips

1 cup frozen dark cherries (cut in half) 

Method:

1) Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and chocolate chips   

   in large bowl

2) In small bowl combine egg, milk and oil

3) Add liquid mixture to dry ingredients, stirring until almost  

   moistened

4) Gently fold in frozen cherry halves, making sure not to over

   mix

5) Preheat the oven to 400 F

6) Spoon mixture into lightly greased muffin pans (or greased

   paper liners), filling 2/3 full

7) Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, checking first at 20 minutes

8) Remove from muffin pans, cool on a wire rack, and enjoy
