Holy chocolatey goodness. This recipe has been making the Pinterest rounds for a while, and I've had it bookmarked for ages. It's pegged as being healthy...in my case, they're really not any better or worse for you than the just-add-water muffins I usually make. HOWEVER, it's hard to find a just-add-water variety that is chocolate. Blueberry...yep. Cranberry-orange...you betcha. Banana nut...sure, why not? Chocolate...NO! The added bonus of this is that it doesn't take eggs (which I sooooo rarely have either a) on hand, or b) that aren't expired). And it DOES take pumpkin, which I almost always have on hand (those of you who know me, know that I keep it on hand for my dog...but who says I can't borrow some for muffins, right?). Anyway, this was super easy, and EXTREMELY moist and delicious (yeah, I snuck one when they got done cooking...they looked/smelled to good to pass up, and it was all I could do to not scarf down 3 more...yeow! You really can't taste the pumpkin at all...just delicious chocolatey goodness). The original recipe can be found at Sweet Verbena if you're interested. Here goes:
