Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cupcakes



I don't think I can state enough how easy it is to whip up something
dang tasty and original, starting with a simple box of cake mix.  Once
again, I am getting my pumpkin harvest on with these little beauties.

1 box of vanilla or white cake mix (to yield 9x13 pan)
1 cup of pure pumpkin puree
2 eggs
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup canola or vegetable oil
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 tsp pure almond extract
1/4 tsp grated nutmeg (or ground nutmeg)

Mix all the above goodies and add 2/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips.

Bake at 350 degrees in paper lined cupcake tray for 18-19 minutes.

Remove from oven and allow to cool, then top with my ridiculous frosting!

*10 out of 10 people agree that these treats are needed at your Thanksgiving dessert table!
