This recipe is from the same “Wendy” who gave me our favorite roll recipe.  Yeah, she’s pretty good in the kitchen…and at a lot of other things too come to think of it. Here’s how to make our favorite pumpkin muffins:

2 c. butter (I use 1 1/2 c. of butter and 1/2 c. applesauce…totally works and makes me feel more healthy)
3 c. sugar

Mix, then add:

6 eggs

Mix, then add:

1 tbsp cinnamon
1 tsp cloves
1/4 tsp ginger
1 tsp allspice
1 tsp nutmeg
1tbsp vanilla
1 tsp salt
1 tbsp baking soda
1 tbsp baking powder

Mix, then add:

4 1/2 c. flour
1 large can pumpkin
3 c. chocolate chips

Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes. This makes a TON and they are completely mouth-watering.  Sometimes we make big ones (pictured), and other times we make mini ones in our little muffin pan, with my pampered chef scoop, with mini chocolate chips.  I would have a picture of those since we just made them on Sunday, but everyone scarfed them down before I could get my camera out.
