Serves: 24 squares
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups shredded fresh pumpkin
- 1 individual wrapped package of graham crackers
- 8oz of softened cream cheese
- 2 cups melted chocolate chips
- Few handfuls of mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- In a large bowl, you’ll want to mix all ingredients (flour through pumpkin) in a large mixing bowl.
- Remember how we floured my sister’s cake? Let’s do that again. We used a 9×13 pan. Pour the batter into the pan.
- Place in the oven for about 30-40 minutes (or until your knife comes out clean). When it’s done, take out and let it cool off.
- Crush up your graham crackers and mix in with room temperature cream cheese.
- Gently, spread the graham cracker mixture over the pumpkin bread.
- Melt your chocolate chips for 30 seconds at a time and pour over the top of the graham cracker layer. Sprinkle with chunks of chocolate or miniature chocolate chips.
- Let the chocolate set before eating.
