Step 2
In a small bowl, combine the sugar, flour, and melted butter. Stir until moistened. Set aside while you make the muffin batter.
Step 3
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, spices, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Step 4
In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin, sugars, oil, buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Use a spatula to stir until the ingredients are smooth.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the pumpkin mixture and stir until just combined.

Gently fold in ¾ cup of the chocolate chips. Don’t over mix.
