4 Ingredient Mint Chocolate Muffins – Easy!

I love to find a tasty, easy recipe that is also a healthier-for-you recipe. Take this one I’m about to share. But first, the only chocolate muffins I have ever made are the ones from a package. I don’t know how to make homemade muffins- but I’d like to know how. [I’ll have to look that up some day.]

 

You could actually just make these as chocolate muffins by using the first two ingredients alone. But I made chocolate chocolate-chip and chocolate chocolate-chip mint. Here’s all you need for both. Substitute either for anything else you like!

 

 4 Ingredient Mint Chocolate Muffins

 

1-  chocolate cake mix

1- 15 oz. can of pumpkin puree

chocolate chips (if you want- I chose dark chocolate)

mint flavoring (if you want it- I used organic peppermint)

 

Mix your cake mix and pumpkin together with an electric mixer on medium for about 2 minutes to get fluffier batter. The muffins don’t rise much if at all. Throw in some chocolate-chips if you want and add some mint flavoring. Mix to incorporate.

Drop a few chocolate chips on the top of your filled muffin cups before entering them into an oven preheated to 350 degrees. Bake about 22 minutes. Stick in a toothpick – if it comes out clean, they’re  done.  I used a cupcake pan and got about 18 muffins.

 

 

I added the mint flavoring to my second batch of muffins. Above you’ll see my son Jack eating his second Chocolate Chocolate-Chip Muffin (from the first batch). He hasn’t had the mint yet. Both my boys had seconds of the healthier-for-you made with pumpkin … chocolate chocolate-chip muffins.

I found this recipe on Pinterest from this blogger. Would you like to get my posts delivered?

    I used your recipe for the 1784 Colonial Day Molasses Cookies to serve to walkers on our annual Ghost and History Walk. The cookies were made by our Woman’s Club members and served by a Colonial reenacter. The walkers loved them, but my staff at my office (who I brought the remaining cookies to) raved over the cookies, eating three and four a piece
