Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (15 oz / 425 g) pumpkin puree
  • 1 box (15.25 oz / 432 g) chocolate cake mix
  • 1 cup (240 ml) water
  • 1/2 cup (115 g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup (180 g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup (180 g) milk chocolate chips
  • 8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup (100 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • Optional: 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin puree and chocolate cake mix. Add water and melted butter. Stir until well combined and smooth.
  3. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
  4. Sprinkle the semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips evenly over the batter.
  5. In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with sugar, egg, pumpkin pie spice, and optional vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  6. Dollop spoonfuls of the cream cheese mixture over the batter. Using a butter knife or skewer, gently swirl the cream cheese into the batter to create a marbled effect without overmixing.
  7. Bake for 45-50 minutes until the edges are set and the center is slightly soft. Tent with foil if the top browns too quickly.
  8. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

Do not over-swirl the cream cheese mixture to maintain visible swirls. Use room temperature ingredients for smooth blending. Melt butter carefully to avoid cooking eggs prematurely. Tent with foil if top browns too fast. Can substitute gluten-free cake mix for gluten-free version. Serve warm or at room temperature, optionally with vanilla ice cream or caramel sauce.
