Chocolate Pumpkin Loaf

Fall is my favorite season, so I am ready for all the cooking festivities to begin. I’m kicking off September with this chocolate pumpkin loaf. Let me tell you… this loaf is decadent! This baked good is basically cake & had the perfect amount of pumpkin. It is extremely moist, rich, and gooey 😮‍💨 Details below!
