Indulge in the perfect combination of rich chocolate and smooth pumpkin with these mouthwatering, fudgy pumpkin chocolate brownies. The pumpkin puree not only adds a touch of autumn goodness but also makes these brownies a tad healthier.
Preheat oven to 350°F and line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
2
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly mixed.
3
Add canola oil and vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Stir until the batter is just moistened and resembles sand.
4
Fold in pumpkin puree using a large spatula until the batter becomes smooth.
5
Stir in 1/2 cup of chopped semisweet chocolate.
6
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly and smoothing the surface with a spatula.
7
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of chopped semisweet chocolate across the top of the batter.
8
Bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few crumbs clinging to it.

Let the brownies cool for at least one hour, allowing them to set before cutting and serving. Cutting them too early may cause the brownies to fall apart.
