Chocolate Pumpkin Applesauce Muffins

 

Good morning and come in for a muffin(s) and coffee or cold, sweet milk.  I was going to do my Pumpkin Applesauce Muffin but decided to add a few ingredients and it worked wonderfully well.  You will enjoy this easy and delicious recipe and if you try it, let me know what you think.

Chocolate Pumpkin Applesauce Muffins or Cupcakes

• 1 Spice Cake mix
• ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa
• 1 cup chunky, homemade applesauce (I use my crock pot applesauce)
• 1 can pumpkin – not pumpkin pie
• 1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
• 1 tsp. Black walnut flavoring

Makes 12 -14 cupcakes
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line muffin tins with cupcake liners or spray with cooking spray

Mix cake mix and cocoa and add the other ingredients as listed. Stir until well mixed. You don't have to beat. Fill cupcake liners or muffin tin cups 2/3 full and bake until top springs back when lightly touched – about 20 – 25 min. This is a dense dough so you can fill your muffin tin cups to the top. Remove from muffin tins and let cool on rack.

Hope you will try this recipe and enjoy.
