  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

  • 1 (12 oz) bag chocolate chips semi-sweet, dark, etc. divided

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin, eggs, oil, sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
  • Fold in flour, instant pudding mixes, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, and salt until *just* combined. You don’t want to over-mix.
  • Fold in 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips (save the rest for garnish), then spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tins.
  • Top with remaining chocolate chips, then bake in preheated oven for 20-30 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out virtually clean.
  • Remove from the oven, cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then gently remove the muffins onto a wire rack to finish cooling until you’re ready to enjoy!
