These Caramel Chocolate Pumpkin Muffins are out of this world ! Moist, soft and packed with Pumpkin and Chocolate Chips.

I used Caramel Chocolate Chips as I like the Caramel/Pumpkin combination but you can use plain Chocolate Chips or Dark Chocolate Chips – whichever you prefer.

We do not have canned Pumpkin in South-Africa, and I always make my own puree from scratch. A while back I made a fantastic Fresh Spiced Pumpkin Dip and I had the idea then already to use the same Dip in a bread or muffin recipe.

Muffins won, because they are so easy to stick into a lunchbox or grab one on the way to work or school for breakfast.

As you can see below, the Pumpkin Dip did not settle on the bottom (which I was afraid it might do), but instead the Dip distributed nicely all over the muffins.

No spread is needed, but the Caramel drizzle makes these Caramel Chocolate Pumpkin Muffins just a tad more special (and I am huge on anything caramel!).

The first time I heard of combining pumpkin and chocolate, I thought it was kind of odd. But after trying it...well...I changed my mind. It's great! My vote is for dark chocolate.Thanks for linking this week, Linda. My son chose your muffins to feature tonight.
