Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 18 minutes
Total Time 23 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 box chocolate cake mix
  • 1 can (15 oz) solid pumpkin (pumpkin puree)
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (plus extra to sprinkle on top)
  • 2 egg whites
  • 2 tablespoons of water

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375° F.
  2. Spray the insides of your muffin liners with no-stick spray and place in muffin tins.
  3. Using a large bowl, whisk the egg whites until a little foamy.
  4. Add in the cake mix, pumpkin, chocolate chips, and water and stir until well-blended. Use an ice cream scooper to fill prepared baking cups about 2/3 full. Bake until a toothpick comes out clean; about 18-20 minutes for full-size muffins or 10-15 minutes for mini muffins

Notes

Make these chocolate pumpkin muffins with just 2-ingredients. I have always made these with a little water and egg whites, but they can be omitted. Simply use a cake mix and 15 ounce can of pumpkin for delicious muffins or cookies!! -for cookies bake at 350° F for 13-15 minutes.
