1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup light brown sugar packed
2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup sour cream
8 tbsp unsalted butter melted and cooled slightly
2 eggs large
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp almond extract

For the Muffins: Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 375 degrees. Grease and flour 12-cup muffin tin. Whisk flour, sugars, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in large bowl. Whisk sour cream, butter, eggs, and extracts together in second bowl until smooth. Stir sour cream mixture into flour mixture until combined, then fold in chocolate chips, figs, and almonds.
