The perfect fall treat and a great thing to serve up at a Halloween bash, this easy-to-make recipe is a favorite. Store-bought pumpkin (filling sold in a can that's available at supermarkets) is the secret to this recipe. These muffins are simple, sweet and still good for ya.

What You'll Need:

1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour

1 cup granulated sugar

1 tbsp pumpkin pie spice

1 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

2 large eggs

1 cup plain pumpkin (half of a 1 lb. can)

1/2 cup (1 stick) melted butter

1 cup (6 ounces) chocolate chips


What You'll Do:

1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. Grease muffin cups, or use foil or paper baking cups.
3. Thoroughly mix flower, sugar, pie spice, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl
.
4. Break eggs into another bowl
.
5. Add pumpkin and butter to eggs and mix until well blended.
6. Stir in chocolate chips.
7. Pour over dry ingredients and fold in with a rubber spatula just until dry ingredients are moistened
.
8. Scoop batter evenly into muffin cups.
9. Bake 20-25 minutes or until muffins are puffed and springy to the touch in the center
