Use up the last bits of pumpkin this fall with a deliciously simple Triple Chocolate Pumpkin Marble Cake.
It’s time for November Cake of the Month and I’m in the mood for pumpkin! I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but for the last few weeks Pinterest, Twitter and Instagram have been filled with everything pumpkin. Pumpkin spice latte, pumpkin pasta, pumpkin loaves and pumpkin cakes. Why not go with the flow and add this delicious Triple Chocolate Pumpkin Marble Cake to the mix!
As with any cake that I make, it has to be simple enough for the beginner cook to tackle and have success. It also has to be delicious and attractive to serve to family or guests.
This cake checks off all the must-haves:
• Simple – just mix in one bowl
• Looks great – I love a Bundlt cake with a glossy chocolate glaze
• Taste – totally chocolatey… is that a word? It can even be served a bit warm to amp up the gooey goodness factor.
I know at this time of year pumpkin is hard to resist – so why bother… enjoy!P.S. I have found a recipe over at averiecooks.com that’s an all pumpkin version of this cake. Give that a try too. http://www.averiecooks.com/2012/10/pumpkin-chocolate-chip-bundt-cake-with-chocolate-ganache.html

what oven temp?
That would really help wouldn’t it!!! 350ºF, I have updates the post. Thanks Donna!
Wow, looks great! I love a one bowl cake 🙂
Me too. Less to clean up… more time to eat cake!
Thanks Angie!
5TH INGREDIENT READS: 1/4 CUP VANILLA OR PLAIN GREEK YOGURT…..CAN’T BE CORRECT AS THE NEXT INGREDIENT IS 1 TSP VANILLA.
SO WHAT REPLACES THE GREEK YOGURT??
Sorry MJ, I am not sure what you are saying. The ingredients are correct. 1/4 cup Vanilla flavour Greek yogurt OR Plain flavour Greek yogurt + 1 tsp Vanilla extract.
This great recipe would also make tasty muffins. I also think one could use sour cream + the 1 tsp of vanilla.
Great suggestion Scottie! Try it and send me a photo…
Love the combination of chocolate and pumpkin together so I can imagine how delicious this cake must have tasted. You can definitely cut me a slice!
Step 7 is missing. I hope it’s not important! Looks delicious!
Sorry, there is no step 7. Just a formatting mistake in Easy Recipe. I fixed it, thanks for pointing that out.
