Reduced Sugar Pumpkin Chocolate Swirl Brownies

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 9x13 baking pan or dish with parchment paper or grease with cooking spray.
  2. Place the chocolate and the butter inside a heatproof bowl. Fill a small saucepan halfway with water and bring it to a simmer over medium heat. Once water is at a boil, set the heatproof bowl over the saucepan to melt the chocolate and butter. Stir mixture occasionally until completely melted and smooth. Turn off the heat.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
  4. In a large bowl, using a hand mixer or stand mixer, mix the Purecane™ zero-calorie Baking Sweetener, eggs, and vanilla, on medium speed until the mixture is fluffy in texture, about 3 to 5 minutes. 
  5. Then, slowly add the flour mixture to the egg mixture and combine, stopping periodically to scrape the sides of the bowl. 
  6. Divide the batter between 2 medium-sized bowls (about 2 cups per bowl). Add the chocolate mixture to one bowl and stir to combine.
  7. To the non-chocolate mixture, add the pumpkin puree, oil, cinnamon, and nutmeg and stir to combine.
  8. Pour the chocolate batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a rubber spatula. Then, pour the pumpkin batter over the chocolate in a semi-swirl way. With a small spatula, gently swirl the two batters to create a marbled effect. You can also use a toothpick to create the swirling effect.
  9. Bake brownies for 35 to 40 minutes or until set, or until a toothpick placed in the middle of the brownies comes out clean.
  10. Remove from the oven and allow the brownies to cool completely before cutting into 16 squares. Enjoy!
