I don’t know what it is, but every year around this time I get the crazy urge to bake. Anyone else? Right now my mind is wrapped around all things pumpkin, so I’ve been experimenting with a few recipes. This one hit the spot. They are filled with warm spices and gooey chocolate. I hope you enjoy!
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). You will need a 12 cup muffin pan. You can butter or spray the muffin cups with a non stick spray. Or you can line the muffin cups with paper liners.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and salt.
In the bowl of your electric mixer, or with a hand mixer, beat the butter until smooth. Add the sugar and beat until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla extract. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. Add the flour mixture and pumpkin puree and beat just until everything is mixed together.Fold in the chocolate chips.
Fill the muffin cups evenly with the batter using two spoons or an ice cream scoop. Place in the oven and bake for about 18 – 20 minutes, or until firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted in the center of one of the muffins comes out clean. Place on a wire rack to cool.
Makes 12 regular-sized muffins.
1 1/2 cups All purpose flour
1 teaspoon Baking Soda
1/2 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
1 tablespoon Pumpkin Pie Spice

I know you’re going to enjoy these as much as we do!
I love that this recipe got to the recipe quickly! I’m a little bugged when bloggers tell a long story about their life before giving the recipe. Lol! Anyway, looking forward to making these!
I couldn’t agree with you more! I have always wondered why they have to talk about everything else. Just give me the recipe! I promise to keep them all short and sweet and straight to the goods.
YUM! I seriously want to make these right now! 😛
Girl, it seriously made my day when I saw that you made them!
