Categories     Fruits and Vegetables     Vegetables     Squash

Time 1h

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 14

¾ cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
¾ cup butter, melted
1 ½ cups white sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 eggs
¼ cup cocoa powder
½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
½ cup pumpkin puree
½ cup chopped walnuts
¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground cloves
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8x8 inch baking pan. Stir the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.
  • In another bowl, stir together the melted butter, sugar, and vanilla extract; beat in the eggs one at a time with a spoon. Gradually add the flour mixture, and stir the batter until it's evenly moistened. Divide the batter in half in two separate bowls.
  • Into one bowl of batter, blend the cocoa powder and chocolate chips. In the second bowl of batter, stir in the pumpkin puree, walnuts, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg.
  • Spread 1/2 of the chocolate batter into the bottom of the prepared baking pan, and follow with 1/2 of the pumpkin batter. Repeat the layers, ending with a pumpkin layer, and drag a kitchen knife or small spatula gently through the layers in a swirling motion, to create a marbled appearance.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the brownies begin to pull away from the sides of the pan, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Cool in the pan, cut into squares, and serve.

PUMPKIN BROWNIES

The recipe is from Nestle (I'm not taking credit for it) and it was sooo good that I had to post it here for safe-keeping. It originally called for vegetable oil which I subbed with applesauce as I do with all my baked goods to cut calories and I tweaked a few other things. This is perfect to make when you have only a little bit of pumpkin left! A little goes a long way for this recipe. NOTE: I just modified this recipe because I made it again, and used 1 oz Baker's bittersweet choclate instead of cocoa powder. Came out so much better! Sweeter and creamier. I think adding 1 tbsp milk or cream will give it a nice lustre too.

Time 45m

Yield 16 brownies, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup pumpkin puree
1/3 cup brown sugar (Domino "brown-u-lated" really works best for this)
1 egg
2 egg whites
2 tablespoons applesauce
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 ounce bittersweet baking chocolate (not unsweetened, recipe originally called for 1 tsp cocoa powder)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/3 cup dark chocolate chips (you can use milk chocolate chips too, but I find that dark really gives a nice note to the pumpkin!)

Steps:

  • Grease a square 8x8 pan with cooking spray.
  • Blend the pumpkin, sugar, egg and egg whites, and applesauce until smooth.
  • Add the flour, baking powder, salt, (and cocoa powder if using that method); blend until smooth.
  • Melt the chocolate (I put the the 1-oz square in a small dish and microwaved on high for 30 seconds) and blend it into the mixture, incorporate completely.
  • Add the spices and fully blend them inches.
  • Mix in the chocolate chips, then spread the mixture evenly into the pan. You might need a rubber scraper to do this.
  • Bake at 350. Depending on your oven strength, bake for 20-30 minutes or until completely set. (My convection oven only needed 20 minutes.) Cut into squares, 4x4 to yield 16 brownies.
