Chocolate Swirl Pumpkin Brownies

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease an 8-inch square baking pan.

In a bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

In another large bowl, stir together the sugar, melted butter, and vanilla. Add one egg, mixing well before adding the remaining two eggs, one at a time, mixing after each addition.

Gradually incorporate the flour mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring until evenly moistened. Divide this batter in half.

Add the chocolate chips and cocoa to one half of the batter; mix well. In the other half, combine the pumpkin puree, walnuts, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg.

Layer half of the chocolate batter at the bottom of the prepared pan. Follow with half of the pumpkin batter. Repeat this process one more time for swirling effects.

Gently use a knife or small spatula to swirl through the layers, creating a marbled pattern.

Bake for 40-45 minutes until the brownies begin to pull away from the pan's edges, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Let the brownies cool in the pan before cutting into 16 squares.

Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for enhanced pleasure!
