Cheats pumpkin and chocolate brownie

Makes 30
50 minutes
Difficulty Medium
3 Ingredients

A great recipe to use up leftover pumpkin or just good as comfort food in winter with a hot chocolate.

Ingredients (makes 30 squares (depending how thick you cut them))

1 packet chocolate cake mix
250g pumpkin puree (smooth)
1 tablespoon cinnamon

Method

Prepare a baking pan by lining it with baking paper. Preheat oven on 180C.
Make the cake mix according to packet up until the step where you pour it into a baking pan.
Mix the cinnamon through the pumpkin puree, making sure it is smooth. You may have to blitz it in a food processor. Layer the pumpkin puree and chocolate cake mix in alternating layers.
Drag a toothpick across the top of the end product to create swirls through the brownie.
Bake for approx 40-45 mins or until a skewer comes out clean.

Does the chocolate mask the pumpkin flavour. I’d love to sneak some extra veggies into the kiddies

Brownie’s are great to hide veggies in ! I make a brownie with grated raw sweet potato. Instead of sweet potato I use sometimes pumpkin, beetroot or beans. I prefer to make the brownie mixture myself.

I make a pumpkin fruit cake and it is delicious. I imagine the chocolate brownie would have a lovely texture with pumpkin in it. Thanks.

Thanks – pumpkin and chocolate brownie sounds different and looks good. Will give it a go – do love brownies and pumpkin is good in baked goodies.

I would neve have thought of that combination. I THINK IT MIGHT BE QUITE NICE ACTUALLY. After all the American pumpkin pie is sweet too if I AM NOT WRONG!
