Pumpkin Patch Brownies

These festive Pumpkin Patch Brownies combine fudgy chocolate and spiced pumpkin layers in one pan, topped with playful candy pumpkins and green frosting vines for a treat that’s as fun to decorate as it is to eat.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ cup mini chocolate chips
  • ½ cup canned pumpkin purée
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • Green frosting for decoration
  • Mini pumpkin candies for decoration

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment, leaving some overhang for easy lifting.
  • Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
  • In another bowl, whisk melted butter and sugar until smooth, then add eggs one at a time and stir in vanilla.
  • Divide the mixture into two bowls: stir cocoa powder and chocolate chips into one, and pumpkin purée with pumpkin pie spice into the other.
  • Spread the chocolate batter evenly in the pan, then top with the pumpkin batter and smooth gently.
  • Bake for 25–30 minutes until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  • Cool completely, then pipe green frosting into vines and decorate with mini pumpkin candies for the pumpkin-patch effect.
