Ingredients
For the brownie batter:
- 6 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling mix)
- 1 cup flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon ground allspice
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¾ cup Chopped Pecans divided
For the cream cheese batter:
- 4 ounces cream cheese room temperature
- 1 egg
- ⅓ cup powdered sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
- 2 tablespoons flour
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour an 8x8 baking pan and set aside.
- Beat the butter and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl for 2 to 3 minutes until well combined. (The butter and brown sugar will have an appearance similar to grainy melted caramel.)
- Beat in the vanilla and eggs until light and creamy.
- Add the pumpkin and beat until combined.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, soda, salt, and spices.
- Beat the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients on low speed of mixer.
- Remove mixer from bowl and stir in the pecans.
- Spread the batter in the prepared pan.
- Add all ingredients for the cream cheese batter to a medium bowl and mix on medium speed until smooth.
- Spoon dollops of the cream cheese onto the pumpkin batter.
- Lightly swirl the two batters together with a table knife.
- Sprinkle the top with remaining pecans.
- Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until a tester inserted near the center comes out clean.
- Cool completely. Slice and serve. Sprinkle with powdered sugar if desired.
Notes
- Use canned, pureed pumpkin for this recipe, not pumpkin pie mix.
- To make cutting easier and cleaner, chill the brownies in the refrigerator before cutting.
- The brownies may be kept at room temperature in a sealed container for a day or in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days. They can be wrapped tightly and frozen for 3-4 months.
