Yes, you read that right- Pumpkin Swirl Brownies. Also known as, one-of-the-best-things-that-has-ever-happened-to-a-brownie. In my humble opinion, of course.
Esi sent out a tweet about her post which featured these brownies. I went and looked at the post and decided almost immediately that I was going to make these. I try not to let that happen too much. I try to plan what I am going to bake ahead of time, but every once in awhile something like this jumps out and says "Bake Me NOW!"
I loved these.
You mix up a batter and divide it in half. Melted butter/chocolate gets mixed into one half. Pumpkin, a little oil and spices get mixed into the other half.
Then those 2 batters are layered and swirled. So it is kinda like a cake-y brownie (I like those better) and a moist, pumpkin cake mixed together. Not kinda like, that is what it is.
I underbaked these just a tad, because I didn't want either part to be dry. Then I refrigerated them overnight and took them to playgroup in the morning.
They were perfect.
*note- the recipe calls for cayenne pepper- I left this out, even though it was a small amount because I was going to be taking them to playgroup. I want to try them again with the cayenne.

These look delicious!!! You swirled them beautifully! I have a pumpkin brownie post scheduled for tomorrow, but it doesn't actually have pumpkin in it!
Almost looks like fudge and pumpkin- that's how moist they are.
These look perfect for the upcoming holidays!
Yum! Now I want to make them again!
Man. I thought I was sick of making pumpkin things, but these brownies just sound too good and are too pretty to pass up. Thanks for sharing!
mmmm send me some!
What a great looking brownie. I love the swirls of chocolate and pumpkin. I've never had that combination before. I'm printing out this recipe and giving them a try. They would be perfect for holiday get togethers. Thanks for sharing.
Great idea to combine pumpkin and chocolate! Love it!
Those brownies looks so scrumptious!
I was going to make these last year when I saw them. Maybe I'll give them a try from the leftover pumpkin puree leftover from the holiday bundt for TWD. I don't think my swirls will look as pretty as yours though!
These look just heavenly!
