Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.
In another medium bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the bowl of dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your delicious chocolate pumpkin muffins!
