Marbled Pumpkin Brownies

Have extra pumpkin you gots to get rid of?  Voila!

Marbled Pumpkin Brownies
Inspired by Martha and the back of the brownie box (I'm so ashamed)

Ingredients:

1 box of Brownie Mix (your choice)

Egg, oil, water, according to box
4 T. Unsalted Butter

1 C. Flour
1/2 t. Baking Powder
1/4 t. Cayenne Pepper (optional)
1/4 t. Salt

3/4 C. Sugar
2 Eggs
1/2 T. Vanilla Extract
1 C. Pumpkin Puree
1/4 C. Vegetable Oil
1 t. Ground Cinnamon
1/4 t. Ground Nutmeg
Chocolate Chips (as many as you can stand - I used almost a full bag)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Butter a 12-inch rectangular baking dish.

 

Make your brownie batter according to box instructions and spread across bottom of baking dish. Beat together remaining ingredients and spread batter across brownie batter. 

With a small spatula, gently swirl the two batters to create a marbled effect.  Sprinkle top with chocolate chips.

Bake until set, 40 to 45 minutes.  Let cool in pan on a wire rack.  Claim that you made from scratch and enjoy!
