What's for Dessert?

PUMPKIN MUFFINS!

 I stumbled upon this recipe on a friend's facebook page, and after a little internet research decided it was worth a shot. This recipe calls for two ingredients. Yep, you read that correctly, just two.

1 box of Spice Cake Mix
1 15 oz. can of pureed pumpkin

Mix them together and put in a lined or greased muffin pan. Crawfish Pie and I decided that since we forgot the baking cups anyway, we could use the mini bundt pan and some Baker's Choice baking spray. The batter is very thick, so you have to smooth it out after you put it in the baking pan. Then bake in a 350 degree oven for about 22 minutes. Let them cool completely, we didn't have any problems with ours but some internet recipes advise that they will fall apart if they are still warm. The result is a new Fall favorite! Crawfish Pie LOVES them! And so does Daddy and Mommy. They are very dense, so moist, and the flavor is amazing.  It's almost like pumpkin pie disguised as a muffin. You have to try them!
