Double Chocolate Pumpkin Bread

Ingredients

• ½ cup cocoa powder
• 1 cup flour
• 1 Tbsp. pumpkin spice
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• ½ cup butter, melted
• ¾ cup sugar
• ¼ cup sour cream
• 1 cup pumpkin puree
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 2 eggs
• 1 ⅓ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350°. Grease a 9"x5" loaf pan.

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

In another large bowl, combine melted butter, sugar, sour cream, vanilla, eggs and pumpkin puree.

Combine wet and dry ingredients. Fold in chocolate chips.

Spoon batter into loaf pan. Sprinkle with remaining chocolate chips. Bake for 50-55 minutes.

Let cool 15 minutes before transferring bread to a cooling rack.

Cut into slices. This bread stays fresh 3-5 days if stored in an airtight container or wrapped in plastic. I highly recommend warming leftover bread slices in the microwave for a few seconds. So delicious!
