I find it hard to believe, but I have never shared a made from scratch pumpkin chocolate chip muffins recipe. I have shared a couple of recipes that start with a cake mix. I have also shared a few other recipes with other mix ins, but not with chocolate chips.
Now this muffin recipe has a secret ingredient that helps make them amazingly moist. It’s dry pudding mix! Pumpkin muffins are usually tender and moist to begin with. However, the pudding just makes these even better.
There is a good amount of cinnamon in these pumpkin chocolate chip muffins along with a little nutmeg. These are also not lacking in the chocolate department either. If you are adding in chocolate to a muffin, there should be plenty.
