Fake Fall

When the weather where you are is nothing even remotely close to fall (The only leaves we have that change color go from green to dead brown because of the heat.) at least I can still bake as if it were fall. I made these yummy pumpkin muffins the other day. I don't know why buy there were so so yummy. I ate two almost immediately. I may even go an have another one right now. I used peanut butter chips instead of butterscotch because that is what I had on hand. For the pumpkin I had some left over in the freezer from where I had baked a whole pumpkin in the oven and then just mashed it with a fork. I got the recipe of another bloggers site - (sorry I can't remember where). Let me know if you try it.
