mmmmm, mondays: pumpkin-spice muffins

 

this is the easiest recipe ever! it literally has two ingredients and can be made in a snap. my kids devour these and they are actually pretty good for them. my good friend shared this recipe with me that she had found from somewhere or someone. apparently it is a weight-watchers recipe as well and is only two points per muffin. i wish i knew where to give credit but, unfortunately, we'll just have to thank whomever came up with this fun, fall recipe. enjoy!

pumpkin-spice muffins

1 box spice cake mix

1 small can of pumpkin

mix the two ingredients well. this will take some time as the spice cake mix sometimes takes a while to break down into the pumpkin. spray or line a muffin pan. spoon mixture into muffin pans and bake per the package directions for cupcakes on the spice cake box. cool and enjoy!
