Pumpkin recipe no. three was good. Despite the nearly full can of pumpkin puree called for in the recipe, this chocolate cake has a very subtle pumpkin flavor, which makes it an easy crowd pleaser. After all, I know that not everyone is as obsessed with pumpkin desserts as I am. It is super moist and chocolatey and delicious. But my favorite part by far is the pumpkin spice butter cream frosting. I am trying to think of other things I can spread it on. Graham crackers? Brownies? My fingers? Yum!
This just in: this cake is even more delicious the next day.

Oh that looks so good!
I have been dyyying over all these pumpkin recipes you've been posting. I LOVE pumpkin and they all look divine!
Oooh, we do something similar - just the 3 ingredients of pumpkin, one box chocolate cake mix, one egg...put them in cupcake tins..sprinkle a few choc. chips (dark is my fav!) and bake! SO quick and easy! I'll have to try this one!!
That seems so yummy. I never thought about chocolate with pumpkin.
You're killin' me Steph! I love pumpkin and chocolate. I have a super yummy pumpkin with choc chips recipe if you want it. (of course now that i've said that there's the risk that you won't like it. :) ) let me know if you do. until then keep sharing!
looks delish! I love your photos-that dollop of frosting is amazing:)
i fINALLY tracked down cocoa powder today at a random health food shop (can you believe it'd be so hard to find basic baking cocoa powder in the uK?!) and want to make this now. yay for pumpkin!
love you.
um, punpkin spice buttercream???????that sounds amazing!
Since we didn't really care for the frosting part, I didn't put it on our cake. You can pick it up tomorrow. :-)
I just made that yesterday! And by golly it IS so good. And the frosting is scrumptious too, couldn't get enough of it and I'm not a frosting girl.
I didn't put the sour cream in the cake mix because I saw the author's cake had collapsed a bit in the pic and I figured it was because the recipe was too dense. The result was amazing and no sinking in the middle!
