You can enjoy one and not feel like it's killing your diet.  Here is a seasonal muffin favorite recipe: Pumpkin Pecan Chocolate Chip Muffin recipe with a little surprise as a topping. Read on to see how I made these delicious muffins.

    I think the chocolate chips would make this where my kids would even eat it. They aren't big on pumpkin but love chocolate 🙂
