I knew I wanted to make a cake or brownies of some sort for today's Choctoberfest recipe so imagine how thrilled I was when I found this recipe for Easy Pumpkin Brownies at Love From The Oven.

I amended the recipe just slightly.  I wanted to use this pan that I bought a couple of years ago on a whim and now feel obligated to use each October, so I put the pumpkin half of the brownie mix on the bottom so it would be orange on the top once turned out of the pan. 

I placed the chocolate batter on top and then only swirled lightly so that the face of the pumpkin remained orange.   Of course, you can make them in a regular 9x9" pan in which case feel free to swirl to your hearts content.

The spice and pumpkin swirled with the deep chocolate not only looked good it tasted wonderful.  The best of both worlds.

How to cook Pumpkin Brownies with Chocolate Swirl

1. Place butter and chocolate chips in a pot over low heat.  Cook and stir until melted.  Remove from heat and set aside.

3. Pour the chocolate mixture into one of the bowls and stir until combined.
4. To the second bowl, add the pumpkin, cinnamon, cloves, allspice and oil.  Stir to combine. 
5. Layer the  batters in a 9x9" or comparable pan, that has been treated with baking spray.  Using a knife, swirl the batters together.
