Ingredients

Servings

dry ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups flour
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder sifted (use Dutched cocoa or Hershey's Special Dark)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp each of nutmeg allspice, cardamom, and ginger

wet ingredients

  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs

fold in

  • 1 cup chocolate chips

ganache topping

  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cups dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F
  2. Spray a standard 9x5 loaf pan with cooking spray and line with a sheet of parchment paper (so you can lift your pumpkin bread out easily for slicing.)
  3. Whisk the dry ingredients together in a bowl.
  4. Whisk the wet ingredients together in a large mixing bowl. Add the dry to to the wet and mix until just blended. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  5. Turn the batter into the prepared pan, and bake for about 45 minutes, or until risen and a toothpick comes out without wet batter clinging to it ~ moist crumbs are fine.
  6. Let the cake cool for 10 minutes, then carefully lift it out and let cool on a rack.
  7. When the cake is cooled, frost it with a thick layer of ganache.
  8. To make the ganache, heat the cream to a simmer, then pour over the chocolate chips. Let sit for 3 minutes, then stir until glossy and smooth. If your ganache is not thick enough to spread, refrigerate it for 10 minutes.
