Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins

I first baked these for my kids one Halloween years ago. I have long since lost the muffin recipe book I got this from, and after looking, it seems out of print. If any of you know where it came from, please let me know! Simply put, the best muffins I have ever had, any time of year.
