Brownie Pumpkin & Malt Cheesecake

An easy and delicious Fall dessert

Ingredients

For Brownies Mix

  • 18 ounces brownie mix (I highly recommend Ghirardelli box mix)
  • ¼ cup water
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil (I used olive oil)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips

    For Pumpkin Layer

  • 8 oz. pumpkin puree
  • 6 ounce package cream cheese, softened
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 3 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/4 cup Soda Fountain Malted Milk Powder
  • 1 Tablespoon pumpkin pie spice

Instructions

Preheat oven according to box mix (325  degrees F for Ghirardelli).

Spray an 8×8 inch baking pan with nonstick spray and set aside.

In a medium bowl, make the brownie mix according the the box directions.

Add the chocolate chips the the brownie mix and set aside.

In a medium bowl, mix the pumpkin, cream cheese, sugar, malt powder and pumpkin spice.  Blend until very smooth.

Pour half of the brownie mix into the prepared pan and spread out so the entire bottom of the pan is covered.

Spoon the pumpkin filling onto the brownie batter in chunks or spread it out evenly, then cover the pumpkin with the rest of the brownie batter and smooth out the top.

It is ready to bake.  Add 10 extra minutes to the directions on the box because of the pumpkin mix.  On the box, it typically states to bake for 50 minutes)

Let the brownies cool before slicing and serving.

Store in refrigerator.
