These 2-ingredient chocolate pumpkin muffins, mini muffins, and cookies made with just chocolate cake mix and a can of pumpkin are a lighter, healthier way to satisfy a sweet tooth.

And did I mention how easy they are?

Weight Watchers Skinny 2-Ingredient Chocolate Pumpkin Muffins

Just stir together a can of pumpkin (or see how easy it is to make your own healthy pumpkin puree) and box of dry cake mix and bake!

I first learned of these skinny sweet treats in one of my Weight Watchers meetings when a member asked how many PointsPlus values there were in the muffins made from cake mix and canned pumpkin.

I hadn't heard of them and had no idea, so suggested she could use her PointsPlus calculator to figure it out from the nutritional labels on the two ingredients and/or do a Google search.

Her question piqued my curiosity and sent me off on a search of my own…

The Skinny on 2-Ingredient Chocolate Pumpkin Muffins and Cookies

It appears the recipe may have originated with Hungry Girl.

She calls her 2-ingredient chocolate pumpkin muffins  Yum Yum Brownie Muffins.

I also stumbled upon a recipe for turning the two ingredients into cookies in Camilla Saulsbury's fun cookbook The Ultimate Cake Mix Cookie Book: More Than 375 Delectable Cookie Recipes That Begin with a Box of Cake Mix.

Which to make, muffins or cookies? I decided to stir the two ingredients together and make a few muffins, mini muffins and cookies from it.

Talk about a fun and successful experiment. Everything turned out tasty.

The muffins and mini muffins were moist and not-too-sweet.

I added a few mini chocolate chips to the remaining batter used to make the cookies, giving them a richer flavor.

My guys thought they were all good but liked the cookies best 🙂

Here's a fun video with Hungry Girl, Lisa Lillien, demonstrating How to Make these Simple 2 Ingredient Chocolate Muffins:

Canned pumpkin is really good for you too. It's packed with fiber and vitamins and naturally low in fat.

• Makes 12 regular or 36 mini muffins or 36 cookies.

• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven.

• For muffins, preheat the oven to 400F degrees and line 12 muffin cups or 36 mini muffin cups with paper liners or coat them with non-stick spray.

• For cookies, preheat the oven to 350F degrees and line cookie sheets with parchment paper or coat with non-stick spray.
