This Chocolate Pumpkin Cake is so incredible. An easy, one-bowl fall pumpkin cake recipe that everyone loves!

Hey guys hey! It’s Mandy from Mandy’s Recipe Box here. How’s your fall so far? Are you having an actual fall? We usually go from summer to about a week or two of fall and then BOOM. Winter. The temperature feels that way anyway. It’s time for all the cozy comfy food, like Pumpkin Swirl Brownies, Pumpkin Dump Cake or this Chocolate Pumpkin Cake.

The minute I get home it’s warm and cozy pajamas on. I love fall and all the smells and food that go with it. From here until December only gets better that way. I live for holiday food you guys. It’s my purpose in life.

How to Make Chocolate Pumpkin Cake

Ingredients:

Chocolate Cake Mix
Pumpkin Purée
Eggs
Olive Oil
Pumpkin Spice
Cream Cheese Frosting

Directions:

Add all ingredients to a large mixing bowl and beat for 2 minutes with a hand mixer.

Pour into a baking dish and spread evenly.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 30-35 until a toothpick comes out clean.

Cool and frost with cream cheese frosting.

Sprinkle extra pumpkin pie spice for a little extra something.

Make sure you give this cake a try. I used canned cream cheese frosting because that’s how I roll most days. You can be fancy and make your own frosting if you must. I’m not the boss of you. Just make this and faceplant into it okay? Thanks.
