Chocolate Cinnamon Chip Pumpkin Bread

I'm so happy to share this amazing pumpkin bread with you guys today. It's delicious. Just amazing. Like, I'm kind of obsessed. I'm thinking of ways to bake it & share & spread this pumpkin, delciousness. I want to give it to the neighbors! The church! Zachary's co workers! It's just so good, it must be shared! I tried to buy a ten pound bag of flour at Sam's the other day with loaves upon loaves of this pumpkin bread in mind but my mother vetoed it for me & for good reason. We have a wedding this coming weekend that we are preparing for! We are buuuusy. And as much as I want to be eating making loaves upon loaves, this week is not the time! But that doesn't stop me from sharing it with you. Maaaaaaake it. I'm in love.   3 C Flour 1 Tsp Salt 1 Tsp Baking Soda 4 Eggs  2 C Sugar 1 15 oz. can of Pumpkin 1 1/2 C Canola Oil  (I know this sounds like a lot but it's the perfect amount. It's not greasy at all.) 1 Bag (about 2 cups) of Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips 1 C of Cinnamon Chips    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all dry ingredients together. Mix wet ingredients in a separate bowl. Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients. Pour in all wet ingredients & mix thoroughly. Fold in the chocolate chips until they're dispersed evenly. Grease two 8x4 loaf pans. I use coconut oil cooking spray. Split the batter between the two pans, pouring it evenly into both pans.    Bake for 60-70 minutes. I baked mine for 65 minutes, removed from the oven & covered with foil for a little more baking time while keeping it moist.     Cool for 10 before serving.   Slice & enjoy! It's delicious hot or cold & great with milk or coffee. :)

Gooey Butter Pumpkin Cake

Hey friends! I have a re-post recipe for you today that I'm dying to make again! With the pumpkins popping up in stores & TX fall creeping in (only in the mornings before noon, but I'll take it!), I'm itching to start making pumpkin goodies. Chances are you are, too! Delicious-ness is what this recipe is!  It's amazing you guys. Ten times better than any pumpkin pie I've tried. (I'm not a fan of pumpkin pie though. So that might be a biased opinion. :) ) Also, it's easy, which is a huge plus when there's so many things to do this Fall!

For the Cake:

• 1 (18 1/4-ounce) package yellow cake mix
• 1 egg
• 8 tablespoons butter, melted

For the Filling:

• 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
• 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin
• 3 eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 8 tablespoons butter, melted
• 1 (16-ounce) box powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon nutmeg

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Combine the cake mix, egg, and butter and mix well. Pour the mixture into the bottom of a lightly greased  baking pan. (I used a 13 x 9 glass baking pan.) 

In a large bowl, mix the cream cheese and pumpkin until smooth. 

Add the eggs, vanilla, and butter, and mix together. Add the powdered sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and mix well. 

Spread pumpkin mixture over the cake batter and bake for 40 to 50 minutes.  

Sprinkle it with powdered sugar for looks. :) 

Happy Baking! And, try not to eat the whole pan! Trust me, it's tempting!
