### Ingredients

 * 110 grams Unsalted butter
 * 180 grams Bittersweet chocolate-chopped
 * 2 cups Plain flour
 * 1 tsp Baking powder
 * 1.33 cups Sugar
 * 4 Egg
 * 1 tbsp Vanilla extract
 * 1.5 cups Pumpkin puree
 * 0.25 cup Vegetable oil
 * 0.5 tsp Cinnamon
 * 0.5 tsp Nutmeg
 * 0.5 tsp Allspice

[[

### Directions

 * Preheat your oven to 180 degrees and prepare a square baking dish about 20-25cm
   in size by greasing it and lining the bottom with baking paper.
 * In a heatproof bowl over boiling water melt the chocolate and the butter together,
   stirring until smooth.
 * In another large bowl, mix together the flour and baking powder, then set aside.
 * Get another bowl and combine the sugar, eggs and vanilla. Beat this mixture with
   an electric mixture until fluffy and well combined, or about 3-5 minutes. Then
   add the flour mixture to this bowl, combining well.
 * Divide the resulting batter into two medium sized bowls (there should be about
   2 cups in each). Into one bowl stir the chocolate mixture, into the other add
   the pumpkin puree, oil and spices.
 * Lay the batters out in the pan in an equal chocolate|pumpkin|chocolate|pumpkin
   formation. You’ll need to do this quickly so the batters don’t set before they’re
   swirled.
 * Using a small spatula, or a blunt table knife, swirl the two batters around to
   create a marbled effect.
 * Bake in the oven until set, usually about 40 minutes. Check before hand as cooking
   times may vary. Cool the brownies on a wire rack, then serve.
