Pumpkin Muffins

Everyone knows how much I love pumpkin.  Love it.  It's part of the reason I love this time of year so much -- there is pumpkin and pumpkin spice EVERYWHERE!  This week, my sister-in-law Jill gave me a recipe for pumpkin muffins that I was dying to try --

1 can of pumpkin
1 box of spice cake (or yellow cake) mix
1 bag of chocolate chips

Bake at 350 for 15-18 minutes.

That's it.  Seriously.  Three ingredients!  I was skeptical, but I made them last night and they are DELICIOUS.  They taste just like a regular muffin, which is SHOCKING without the oil or eggs or any of your typical ingredients.  It's almost as much a mystery to me as Diet Coke cupcakes.  (How can a box of cake mix and a can of Diet Coke make such wonderful cupcakes?  I don't understand how it took me so long to find this recipe!)

Jill is the pumpkin expert -- she has an entire cookbook of pumpkin recipes! -- so I'm sure she'll continue to be my resource for ways to incorporate my favorite Fall flavor into my baking and cooking.  I hope you all enjoy this recipe as much as I did!  Happy baking!
