Twelve Days of Sweet with Candis Terry & Jana too!

Welcome to Day 6 of the Twelve Days of Sweet with Jana Wilder and Candis Terry! Today they are sharing a yummy recipe for Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins. Yum!!

DAY 6:
Jana Wilder (Mother to all that is Wilder!)

I’ve always been a bit traditional, except when it came to raising my five sons. There was no rule that ever stuck with them. At least not all at the same time. The holidays around our house were always a bit wild . . . and competitive. Each of them had their own tastes, their own likes, and their own dislikes. Which is probably why they all chose such different women to spend their lives with. This was one recipe that seemed to please them all.

Easy Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins

Ingredients:
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
3 cups granulated sugar
1 can (15 ounces) LIBBY'S® 100% Pure Pumpkin
4 large eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup water or orange juice
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions:

  • PREHEAT oven to 350° F. Paper-line or grease 30 muffin cups.
  • COMBINE flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda and salt in large bowl. Combine sugar, pumpkin, eggs, oil and juice in large mixer bowl; beat until just blended. Add flour mixture to pumpkin mixture; stir just until moistened. Fold in chocolate chips. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups, filling 3/4 full.
  • BAKE for 25 to 30 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in centers comes out clean. Cool in pans on wire racks for 10 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely. Store muffins in covered container or resealable plastic bags.

Mistletoe, holly, and cowboys, oh my! Christmas in Texas has never been sweeter.

Years ago, Chase Morgan traded in his dusty cowboy boots for the shimmering lights of New York City and a fast track up the corporate ladder. But when his shiny life is turned on end just in time for Christmas, Chase knows he needs to reevaluate even if that means going home to Texas to endure his least favorite holiday.

When Mr. Tall, Dark, and Smoking Hot walks through her door at the Magic Box Guest Ranch, Faith Walker sees just another handsome, rich exec looking to play cowboy for a week-at her expense. She’s sure the grumpy, but sexy as hell Scrooge will put a crimp in her holly jolly plans. Until a sizzling kiss has her seeing him in a new light.

Chase is haunted by secrets, and even though it goes entirely against her “hands off the guests” rule Faith is tempted to help him leave the past behind. As the magic of the season swirls around them, she is determined to succeed because now she is certain one sweet, cowboy Christmas will never be enough.



Candis Terry was born and raised near the sunny beaches of Southern California and now makes her home on an Idaho farm. She’s experienced life in such diverse ways as working in a Hollywood recording studio to chasing down wayward steers. Only one thing has remained the same: her passion for writing stories about relationships, the push and pull in the search for love, and the security one finds in their own happily ever after.
