  • Remove and fold in 1 cup of the mini or regular chocolate chips.
  • Fill the muffin pan liners with the finished batter (usually a full ice cream scoop should do it, unless you have bigger muffin pan)  and top with mini chocolate chips.
  • Bake muffins on 350 degrees for 25-35 minutes, or until you insert a tooth pick into the center and it comes out clean.
  • Serve and enjoy.

Notes

  • If you don’t have any pre made pumpkin pie spice to hand, you can use cinnamon with a pinch of ground ginger and nutmeg mixed in.
