Pumpkin-Chocolate tea cake

How should I miss pumpkin season! Here is one of my first shared pumpkin recipes. This one was ease to create. I was thinking for a few days about pumpkin a chocolate to mix together. Sometimes thinking too much is not necessary, but the most important is being creative. I just mixed ingredients, I had in my pantry. And voila!


Pumpkin-chocolate cake is delicious, healthy and easy to make. Even if you don´t like pumpkin in your cake, give it a try. Youĺl be surprised as it doesn´t taste as a pumpkin cake at all.
