Pumpkin Spice Chocolate Chip Truffles


When I got home from work on Thursday evening I had this great idea…I wanted to bake!

I even went to the grocery store specifically to buy Chocolate chips because pumpkin and chocolate were on my mind (and we all know I can’t actually keep chocolate chips at home).

We had a big team meeting on Friday morning, so I knew I would take the goods to work for colleagues to enjoy…

And then… the weather went crazy and the flooding started. Then it was just me and 14 muffins at my house.

Needless to say, I found myself in a difficult position. Finally, I find it difficult to say “No thanks to the cake.” After eating two of these for breakfast, I put these bad boys in the freezer.

The good news is that I can tell you with certainty that they are great frozen! I ate them one at a time and microwaved them for 20 seconds to get the perfect defrost.

Overall, the muffins have a fabulous tangy flavor that I think you’ll love, plus a touch of chocolate to make them even more fun. I’ve also made these muffins many times without the chocolate chips, and you can leave them out if you prefer.

Pumpkin Spice Chocolate Chip Muffins

Inspired by Skinnytaste

For 14 people

INGREDIENTS

1 spice cake mix
1 15-ounce can pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
2/3 cup mini semisweet chocolate chips
Cooking spray
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.

2. Combine cake mix and pumpkin in a large bowl and beat with an electric mixer until batter is smooth. Note: You may want to add water because you think you need to thin the mixture. Do not do it!

3. Stir in the chocolate chips.
4. Spray a muffin tin with cooking spray (or add cupcake liners) and pour batter into each cup, dividing the batter evenly between the cups. Note: I have used liners since I took these to work, but I don’t normally use them. I also used one of those mini ice cream scoops to fill the cups – – so easy!
5. Using a spoon slightly moistened with water, smooth the surface of each muffin. Note: The batter will bake differently than regular muffins and will have strange peaks if you don’t smooth it out. Totally optional, but I like mine to look pretty.
6. Bake muffins at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.
7. Remove from oven and cool on a cooling rack.
8. Let them cool and be warned…you’ll want more than one!
