Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins

You can say these are healthy since they have pumpkin in them...as long as you just ignore the...um...two cups of sugar that's also in them! ;) I make these in the mixer (it's very handy for combining the dry ingredients since the brown sugar clumps up) but be sure not to over-mix them. If you mix them by hand, combine all the wet ingredients in a separate bowl before adding them.

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins
2 C. flour
2 C. packed light brown sugar
2 t. cinnamon
1/2 t. salt
2 t. baking soda
1 C. oil
1 15 oz. can pumpkin (2 cups)
4 eggs
2 C. chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350'. Combine flour, sugar, cinnamon, salt, and baking soda. Mix in oil, pumpkin, and eggs. Stir until barely combined, add chocolate chips and finish mixing lightly. Fill 2 muffin tins 2/3 full. Bake 22-25 minutes.

Makes 2 dozen muffins.
