Oh My Gourd! - 2 Ingredient Pumpkin Muffins

I found this pin on Pinterest of 2 ingredient pumpkin muffins from Sweet-Verbina, originally made as a pumpkin cake on Big Red Kitchen.  The hubster and I both LOVE pumpkin, so I knew I had to try it! I used Spice Cake instead of the Vanilla Cake used in the original recipe, and it was amazing!

You just empty the cake mix and the 16oz. can of pumpkin into a mixing bowl and mix it.  That's it! No eggs, no water, nothing!  I did this at work so there wasn't an electric mixer, and mixing it by hand made it kind of sticky and not batter-like like it was supposed to be, but it tasted yummy anyway, even if it didn't look the best.

Tah-dah!
I ate some plain, but I also bought some Cream Cheese frosting for the top and it tasted really great too! 

Other Variations :
  • Big Red Kitchen has a recipe for a glaze with her post
  • Sweet-Verbina dusted hers with powdered sugar
  • I bet it would taste great with chocolate  chips added in
  • I might try making these as pancakes too; yum!
  • I'm thinking about trying it out with carrot cake mix too
Have you tried these out?  Any other ideas to change up this simple recipe?

Must Make Mondays

I've found some fantastic ideas floating around this week, and here are a few of my favorite...


Procrastination Station shares this cute idea for a baby shower gift - to go bags with wipes, formuls, onesies, etc.

Be Different Act Normal featured this adorable witches hat and broom meal - my kiddos would love it!

Big Red Kitchen has a recipe for a delicious looking 2 ingredient pumpkin cake - I'll be tryin this soon!

Tablespoon shows off some cute Nutter Butter Ghosts - wouldn't this be adorable for a Halloween party?

A Brooklyn Limeston In Progress writes a how to for this wonderful DIY Dinnerware!

  

Dashing Dish shows off how to make mini deep dish pizza - this would be great for a party too!  I could even see buying some muffin tins that make 6, throwing a party and having a pizza bar set out where each couple takes their own pan and adds their own ingredients!  How fun!?


Thanks for sharing all your wonderful ideas!  I can't wait to try these out!
