No reviews

Ingredients

1 cake mix (any flavor works, but chocolate is our hands down favorite!)
1 can pumpkin or 2 cups mashed cooked pumpkin
chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

Beat the ingredients together with an electric mixer until smooth. (It will be really thick.) Add 1 cup mini chocolate chips and stir.

Line muffin tins with paper muffin cups and spray with non-stick spray. Use an ice cream scoop to put the batter into the muffin cups. (I can get 24 from one box of mix.)

Bake at 350 degrees for around 20 minutes. Cool and frost if desired. My family likes them just as they are when they are hot from the oven.

Spice cake mix is great, too and you can add white chocolate chips, peanut butter chips or butterscotch chips.

You can make EASY and delicious meals at home in less time than eating out! You’ll save a ton of money on food and your family will thank you!
