My sister told me about a recipe she found for Chocolate Muffins using only 2 ingredients…Chocolate Cake Mix and Canned Pumpkin!!! No oil or eggs are needed and I will tell you that after these little muffins come out of the oven, they are pure chocolatey goodness and you won’t taste the pumpkin…or at least I didn’t! I like the thickness and texture of these muffins because they come out a little dense, sorta like a cakey brownie! It’s a great low fat recipe and a thrifty one too!
I mentioned this the other day on my Facebook Page and I promised a recipe so here it is.
- 1 - Devils Food Chocolate Cake Mix (other flavors can be used too)
- 1 - 15 oz. Canned Pumpkin
Directions:
Mix Cake Mix and Canned Pumpkin together (very thick batter, so it takes alot of mixing). Use a spoon or even an ice cream scoop to pour mixture into 12 Cupcake Paper Cups. Bake at temperature the Cake Mix calls for for around 19-22 minutes. Use a toothpick to see if muffins are done…if not, put back in the oven for another minute or 2!
These are DELICIOUS!!! If you’d like to try another variation using chocolate chips…view this recipe here!

These sound yummy – going to try them!
Maura…they are REALLY good. Be sure and let me know what you think!!
I have had these they are great! You can also do Pumpkin Muffins, use Spice Cake mix & can of pumpkin.
Lee Anne…Mikki, my sister mentioned that she wanted to try that too! That sounds really good. I’m a chocolate hound though, but I’d like to try the spice cake one. I think my husband would probably like it better too!
