Carol got this recipe from Jeanne Molz and claims her kids go wild over it. She loves it because she can sneak the healthy pumpkin in there!

4-1/2 cups sugar
1-1/2 cups oil
6 eggs
3 cups (or one large can) pumpkin
1/2 cup water
3 teaspoons baking soda
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
3 teaspoons cinnamon
3 teaspoons nutmeg
5-1/4 cups all purpose flour
1 (12-ounce) package semi-sweet chocolate chips (if desired, but makes it really good!)

Mix all ingredients, adding flour last and then chocolate chips, if incorporating. May put in mini-loaf pans or regular loaf tins. Spray loaf tins with non stick spray for easy removal. Makes several loaves. Bake at 350 degrees for one hour. Freezes well.
