Layer the dry ingredients in a 1-quart mason jar in the following order for presentation: flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and chocolate chips. Use a spoon to level each layer before adding the next.
Seal the jar tightly with a lid and attach instructions for baking the muffins (included below).
To bake the muffins, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of canned pumpkin puree, 0.5 cups of vegetable oil, 2 large eggs, and 0.25 cups of milk.
Add the dry muffin mix from the jar into the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
