We had a family home evening halloween party on Monday. We ate spaghetti and "eye balls" for dinner and had some really yummy chocolate pumpkin cake for dessert. Maddy and Mason got to help carve the pumpkin.
Here's the recipe for the cake because it was really good.
Chocolate Pumpkin Cake
1 1/2 c. flour
2/3 c. cocoa powder
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 c. buttermilk
1 c. pumpkin
2 tsp. vanilla
3/4 c. butter
1 c. brown sugar
1 c. sugar
3 large eggs plus 1 egg yolk
Cream butter and sugars. Add eggs one at a time. Combine dry ingredients. Combine pumpkin, milk and vanilla. Alternate adding flour mixture and pumpkin mixture to butter. Bake for 30-35 minutes at 375 degrees. Frost with cream cheese frosting. Yum!!!
If you want to know what real pumpkin tastes like you can ask Mason because he tried to eat it about 10 times.

I'll have to try that cake, it looks good. I'm going to email you a brownie recipe that was delicious, old fashioned buttermilk brownies!
