Yield: 1 dozen

Ingredients:
1 2/3 cups flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
3/4 teaspoon mace
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup canned pumpkin
2 eggs
1 stick (8 tablespoons) butter or margarine - melted
6 ounces chocolate chips

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine all dry ingredients in a bowl - mix well. Combine all wet ingredients in another bowl. Add wet ingredients to dry and mix gently just to combine everything. Add chocolate chips and mix lightly until just combined. Bake in a greased 12 cup muffin pan for 20 to 25 minutes. Do not over bake. Test w/toothpick. They should still seem a little underdone when removed from the oven.

Sounds great, probably a little too rich for my weight watchers program though!

If you used margerine instead of butter it would be better...you could use Splenda instead of sugar. The pumpkin would be healthy... chocolate chips...well, everyone needs a treat now and then!

I've used half splenda /half sugar in baked goods (mixing myself not paying splenda prices for theirs) and it came out good --did that with Chris's pumpkin choc chip cookies recipe last year. hmm, now if I used 1/2 oatmeal too then it would become a health food right

Absolutely.
