Chocolate Pumpkin Bakes
Ingredients
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup chocolate chips, divided
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, the ideal temperature for baking. Next, prepare a 12-cup muffin tin by either greasing it with cooking spray or lining the cups with paper liners for easy removal.
2
Then, combine flour, cocoa powder, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Ensure these dry ingredients are well incorporated by whisking them together until they form a cohesive mixture.
3
Add brown sugar to the dry ingredients and mix until everything is thoroughly combined, creating a smooth batter.
4
Make a small indentation in the center of the dry ingredients using a spoon, leaving a clear area for the wet ingredients to be added.
5
Add pumpkin puree, eggs, vegetable oil, sour cream, and vanilla extract to the center of the dry ingredients. Use a spoon or whisk to gently fold these ingredients into the batter until they are just combined.
6
Add 3/4 cup of chocolate chips to the batter and mix until they are evenly distributed throughout.
7
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 prepared muffin cups. Top each cup with a sprinkle of remaining chocolate chips.
8
Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 18 to 22 minutes, or until they spring back when pressed lightly with your finger.
9
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
