Holiday Style :: Food Editions - Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins.

When I made the pumpkin gooey cakes, I had to buy a big can of pumpkin.  I didn't want to waste half a can of pumpkin, so I found a recipe for muffins to make with it.  They were super easy!  I pretty much had everything I needed around the house for them too.
