Quick and Easy Pumpkin Cupcakes

My grandmother used to make these around the holidays. They are a big hit at office parties and with kids! They are very quick and easy. If you want icing, I recommend whipped cream cheese icing, but they are very good without it.

Original recipe makes 24 cupcakes

2/3 cup water

  2. Beat pumpkin puree, water, and eggs together in a bowl until smooth. Stir cake mix into the pumpkin mixture until you get a smooth batter. Gently fold chocolate chips through the batter. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups.
