Pumpkin Muffins

1 1/2 cup flour
1 cup sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp cloves
1/4 tsp allspice
1/4 tsp salt
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup pumpkin
1/2 cup butter (margarine) melted
1 cup chocolate chips

Mix dry ingredients and set aside. In large bowl beat eggs. Stir in pumpkin, melted butter and chocolate chips. Slowly add dry ingredients. Spoon into muffin pan, lined with muffin papers. Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes. For mini muffins, use mini chocolate chips and bake 15-18 minutes.

Often I 3 1/2 times the recipe, so I can use a big can of pumpkin. I also decrease the sugar by a over half, because I do not like a lot of sugar. I have used white chocolate chips, and/or pecans in the batter--both turn out good.
