{Coconut Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins}




Ok… I admit… the pumpkin obsession is in full force... and the obsessive pumpkin baking has begun!  


Another confession...I love that the Minnesota days are getting just a bit cooler!   The cool weather makes fall (pumpkin) baking that much better!  Fall is by farm my favorite season here in Minnesota!  


These Coconut Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins helped fuel my fall baking obsession and I have to admit I am pretty obsessed with them!   They have the perfect amount of sweetness with a hint of spice, and the addition of coconut and chocolate give these muffins a unique twist. Whip up a big batch and enjoy all week!  Happy Fall Baking!
