Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a 18-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cocoa powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt until thoroughly combined. (3 minutes)

03

Step

In a separate bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Fold in the chopped walnuts and chocolate chips. (1 minute)

06

Step

Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full. This allows for a nice dome as they bake. (5 minutes)

07

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. (30-35 minutes)

08

Step

Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. (5 minutes)

09

Step

Once the muffins are slightly cooled but still warm to the touch, dust lightly with powdered sugar for an elegant finish. (2 minutes)

For a deeper chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate chips or add a tablespoon of instant espresso powder to the dry ingredients.
To enhance the nutty flavor, toast the walnuts lightly in a dry skillet before chopping.
These muffins are best enjoyed within 2-3 days. Store them in an airtight container at room temperature.
For longer storage, freeze the muffins in a single layer on a baking sheet, then transfer them to a freezer bag. They can be reheated in the oven or microwave.
