Mini Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins



Mini bites of heaven - that is what these are!! These were so moist and delicious and the glaze on top just pushed them over the edge... They were a fabulous snack for the kids when they got home from school and would be a sweet treat at breakfast too! :)


Mini Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins
(recipe found on www.theprettypartyshoppe.com)

1/3 cup oil
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup applesauce
1 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 cup pumpkin puree
1 3/4 cup flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

Glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
5 teaspoons milk
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

In a mixing bowl, beat the oil, brown sugar, applesauce, vanilla and pumpkin until creamy. Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, 1 teaspoon cinnamon and nutmeg. Slowly add to the pumpkin mixture alternately with the buttermilk. Stir in the chocolate chips by hand. Spray a mini muffin pan with non stick spray. Fill the tins almost full. Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes. Let cool 2-3 minutes in the pan. Remove to a wire rack to cool completely. Stir together the powdered sugar, milk and cinnamon. Dip the tops if the muffins in the glaze and let set.
