Pumpkin chocolate chip muffins

I am so excited to be starting my baking blog. It gives me a chance to share my love for baking. As of last month, I became a member of the Cake Slice Bakers. This month we started baking from Cake Keeper Cakes by Lauren Chattman. I am so excited and know I am going to have a good time.

The first cake we baked was the pumpkin chocolate chip pound cake. I decided instead to make muffins, and they turned out wonderul. They were very moist and delicious. The nice thing about baking muffins is they don't take as long to bake. It was only about 20 minutes, compared to about an hour when making it in a loaf.

The recipe is simple and easy to follow. Just about anybody could make it. the one thing I did different in the recipe was I used Light I Can't believe its Not Butter. You can't even tell the difference.

My goal for this blog is to have fun baking and sharing it with others. Along the way I hope to share a few tricks that I have learned along the way. For example, I learned that you can substitute ground flax seed for eggs when baking. I have tried it in a few recipes, and I will share those soon. I don't want to give away to much now or no one will come back to ready my blog. I would also like to maybe have some guest bloggers, so if anyone is interested, please let e-mail me at gallupsharon@yahoo.com
