Welcome Fall and White Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins

Making a Smiley girls' fall favorite this morning inspired me to sit down and wipe the dust off this blog so I could share these amazing White Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins with you! I am not one to jump on everything the fall pumpkin spice train has to offer. I think the pumpkin spice m&m's, Oreos, etc are quite disgusting but the pumpkin baked goods on the other hand make me very happy! Pumpkin Breads, Cakes, Muffins...Yum! Do you have a fall favorite food that just makes you feel happy?  Have you tried pumpkin dump cake? You should check it out here if not!

My good friend Megan Johnson had made these pumpkin muffins once when we spent an afternoon at Disney Springs and I absolutely fell in love! They are super simple and delicious and they are ready in no time! They aren't the healthiest breakfast but they are a nice fall treat! Enjoy!

White Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins


Yellow Cake Mix (Love the butter recipe yellow cake mix by Betty Crocker but any will do!)
Spice Cake Mix
1 LARGE can pumpkin puree
1-2 bags white chocolate chips

Mix the dry cake mixes and pumpkin puree together. Fold in chocolate chips (I like lots!). Mixture will be thick. Spoon into greased or lined muffin tins (these muffins don't rise much so I fill mine pretty full) and bake at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes or until muffins feel spongy. Let cool for a few minutes so you don't burn your mouth and enjoy!

*Note* This recipe makes close to 3 dozen...I have often halved it using half of each cake mix, a small can of pumpkin puree, and 1 bag of chocolate chips. I just place the remaining cake mix in a Ziploc bag and hang onto it until the next time! They will keep for several days in the fridge but they always taste better fresh out of the oven to me!
