Found this recipe on Grassroots Recipes Mastercook Collections by Deirdre Dee Cox. It states that the original recipe came from a GI who found it in Egypt when he was stationed there. The whipped cream frosting was added later but really adds to the recipe. Posted for ZWT6.

EGYPTIAN MILK CHOCOLATE CHIP PUMPKIN CAKE



Egyptian Milk Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Cake image

My daughter Kit & I made this cake for her Girl Scout group. We found it on a web site for Egyptian foods. It's flavorful, not too heavy on the pumpkin taste and is great as a cake with icing drizzled on it or as a snack. All the Girl Scouts agreed they liked this cake to use for their World Thinking Day to represent Egypt
