Ingredients

4 eggs
15 ounces pumpkin puree
1 cup butter melted
3 cups flour
2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon cloves
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups dark chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In the bowl of an electric mixer, add eggs, pumpkin and butter.
Mix on medium speed until fully combined.
TIP: Fully combined means that no single ingredient is visible but rather everything is combined into one cohesive mixture.
Add flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, allspice and salt to bowl.
Mix together on low speed until almost combined.
TIP: You'll want to stop mixing when a bit of dry ingredients are still visible and not fully incorporated. This will help prevent over mixing the batter in the next step which will lead to tough, instead of tender, muffins.
Add chocolate chips to bowl.
Mix on low speed until just combined.
Line muffin tin with paper liners.
TIP: The parchment muffin baking cups from Paper Chef are my favorite as I’ve never had a muffin or cupcake stick using them!
Scoop batter into prepared muffin tin using a large cookie scoop.
TIP: Using a cookie scoop insures muffins that are all of a uniform size.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin removes cleanly.
Let muffins rest in pan for three minutes and then transfer to rack to cool.
