Pumpkin Muffins & Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

Here's another 2 recipes in 1 post. Both SO yummy!
Pumpkin Muffins

3 Eggs
1 c. Sugar
2/3 c. Pumpkin
3/4 c. Flour
1/2 tsp. Baking Powder
1/2 tsp. Baking Soda
1/2 tsp. Cinnamon
1/2 tsp. Cloves
1/4 tsp. Salt

Preheat oven to 375'. Grease well a mini-muffin pan. Cream together the Eggs, Sugar, and Pumpkin. Then add all the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture. Once mixed fill each mini-muffin hole 3/4 of the way full with the batter. Bake for 8-10 min. Once they are done baking, quickly and carefully pull each mini-muffin out of the pan and let cool to allow for the frosting.



Cream Cheese Frosting

2 oz. Cream Cheese
2 Tbs. Butter
1 Tbs Milk
1 tsp. Vanilla
Powdered Sugar

Blend together the Cream Cheese and the Butter. Then add the milk and vanilla. Gradually add powdered sugar until it reaches your desired constancy. If it tastes good and it is easy to handle then you got it right. If it is still too thick, just add a little more milk.
Put the frosting in a plastic zipper bag. Trim the corner of the bag and gently squeeze the frosting out on the cooled muffins in swirls starting from the middle and work to the outside. Or just be simple and frost them like regular cupcakes, either way they will still taste great!



Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

1 c. Sugar
1 c. Pumpkin
1/2 c. Oil
1 Egg
2 c. Flour
1/2 tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Cinnamon
2 tsp. Baking Powder
1 tsp. Baking Soda
1 tsp. Milk
1 tsp. Vanilla
1-2 c. Chocolate Chips

Preheat oven to 375' and lightly grease cookie sheets. Cream together Sugar, Pumpkin, Oil, and Egg. Sift together Flour, Salt, Cinnamon, Baking Powder, and Baking Soda and add to the creamed mixture. Add the Milk and Vanilla, then gradually add the Chocolate Chips (Mini Chocolate Chips work great also!). Drop by spoonfuls and bake for 10-12 min.
