<\/p>\n

This recipe is perfect for those chilly mornings when you can\u2019t seem to drag yourself out from under your blankets. What usually gets me out of bed is the promise of a warm breakfast, and heating one of these up is the perfect way to start your day without much effort. If you bake a lot, the majority of these ingredients should already be found around your house.<\/p>\n

I used pumpkin pie spice in this recipe, but it\u2019s made up of ginger, cloves, nutmeg, and cinnamon. If you don\u2019t have the pre-mixed spice you can simply use a bit of each of the four spices it is made up of! If you\u2019re going this route, I\u2019d be a little heavier on the cinnamon and nutmeg.<\/p>\n

I also used mini chocolate chips, which I find give a better texture and consistency than the larger kind. This way, you get bites that are filled with the delightful flavor of spiced pumpkin mixed with sweet chocolate. When using larger chocolate chips, I always end up getting a few bites where the chocolate flavor overwhelms the rest of the muffin. All of my little chocolate chips got hidden on the inside of the muffins so no one expected them to be there. Everyone was delightfully surprised.<\/p>\n

These muffins are extremely aromatic and will leave your entire house smelling like the sweet spices of autumn! They\u2019re the perfect breakfast, dessert, or midnight snack- yum.<\/p>\n
