Description

Moist, rich brownies swirled with a pumpkin spiced cheesecake.

Ingredients

  • 8 Tablespoons Butter
  • 8 ounces, weight Bittersweet Chocolate, Chopped
  • 1-⅛ cup Sugar, Divided
  • 4 whole Large Eggs, Divided Use
  • 1-⅛ cup Flour, Divided
  • ¼ cups Cocoa Powder (Dutch Process If You Have It)
  • ½ teaspoons Baking Powder
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • 4 ounces, weight Cream Cheese (reduced Fat)
  • ½ cups Canned Pumpkin
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • ½ teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoons Ground Nutmeg
  • ⅛ teaspoons Ground Cloves
  • ⅛ teaspoons Ground Allspice
  • ¼ teaspoons Ground Ginger

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray an 8-inch pan with baking spray.

In a large microwave safe bowl, melt butter and chocolate together, stirring between 30-second cooking intervals. Whisk until completely smooth. Whisk in 1 cup sugar and then add 3 of the eggs, one at a time, whisking between each addition.

Whisk in the dry ingredients: 1 cup flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt.

Transfer batter to the greased pan and spread the batter evenly.

In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese and remaining 1/8 cup of sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the canned pumpkin and beat until thoroughly combined. Beat in the remaining egg and the vanilla. Add the remaining 1/8 cup of flour and the ground spices (alternately, you can use 1 1/2 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice in place of the 5 ground spices).

Using a spoon or rubber spatula, create wells in the top of the brownie batter. Spoon the pumpkin cheesecake mixture into the wells. Use the tip of a knife to swirl the chocolate and pumpkin together. (The two batters have different consistency so use a swirl-and-fold motion to bring the chocolate swirl to the top.)

Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, 40-50 minutes. Cool in pan for 30 minutes before cutting into 16 squares and serving.

Leftovers will keep in a covered cake plate for 3-4 days. They can also be wrapped and frozen.
