To sweeten the deal, we also added a cakey topping that tastes intensely like a molten chocolate cake. Every bite of this decadent dump cake is an addictive combination of custardy pumpkin and melted chocolate. It’s like barely-baked pumpkin bread with chocolate chips. Need we say more? You have our full permission to enjoy this dream team (pumpkin and chocolate, that is) all year long, not just around the holidays. It’s so simple you can.
