Let’s Make Pumpkin Muffins! 

Recently, I received a couple of comments on the blog asking me the whereabouts of my chocolate chip pumpkin muffin recipe.  That made me think, “Do I even have a recipe for chocolate chip pumpkin muffins?” I did a little research and it turns out I shared such a recipe back in 2010. Talk about a long time ago. I suppose something happened along the way and the post was somehow deleted or redirected so the recipe was lost.

I thought it might be gone for good, but I did some more digging and was able to find the original post and recipe on my old blogging platform. I didn’t even realize I could access that account. 

As soon as I found the recipe I shopped for the ingredients, made the muffins, photographed them, and now I’m once again sharing the recipe with you!

Why I Love This Recipe:

There are several reasons why I love this recipe and I assume the folks asking for it like this recipe for some of the very same reasons. 

  • It’s easy to make. No need to drag out your stand mixer or even your hand mixer. All you need are some bowls and a whisk. 
  • It’s rich with pumpkin spice flavor. If I’m baking a pumpkin recipe, I like it to be full of seasonal spices. This recipe includes all of my favorites to really make it taste like fall. 
  • A mix of chocolate brings it all together. These muffins have two types of chocolate chips, semisweet and white chocolate, which makes them so good. (Well, in this case, there are three different chips used because, in addition to the white, I used milk chocolate and semi-sweet.)

Have I convinced you to give them a try? Perfect!
