If you’re looking for something tasty and unusual to make for Thanksgiving, I have a dessert suggestion – Pumpkin Brownies!

This recipe comes to us courtesy of the Stonewall Jackson Inn in Harrisonburg, VA. It also comes courtesty of a very nifty search engine that features recipes from Bed & Breakfasts around the country, called BnBFinder. I tried this recipe over the weekend and I can tell you they’re incredible. Top them with freshly whipped cream (not that fake stuff!) and you won’t regret it!

Pumpkin Brownies

Ingredients:

• 1 15-ounce can of pumpkin
• 1 ¼ cups vegetable oil
• 4 eggs
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1 cup granulated white sugar
• 2 cups flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon allspice
• ½ teaspoon salt

Directions:

• 1 container whipped topping or cream cheese frosting (optional)
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Beat together eggs, oil, pumpkin, and sugars. Stir in remaining ingredients until evenly mixed. Pour into a greased and floured 9-by-13 inch baking dish.
• Bake for 30 minutes, or until center springs back when touched.
• Top with whipped topping or cream cheese frosting – or serve warm with vanilla ice cream a la mode.

Enjoy!
