Pumpkin and chocolate come together in one scrumptious cake. Buttery-moist crumb, rich in pumpkin flavor with hints of cinnamon and vanilla, and plenty of dark chocolate chips.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray. If desired, line the pan with parchment paper and spray the paper with cooking spray. This is helpful if you want to remove the entire cake from the pan to cut and serve.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Whisk in the pumpkin puree, oil, eggs, and vanilla. Whisk until just blended without over-mixing. Fold in the chocolate chips.
Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and smooth the surface. If desired, add a few more chocolate chips on top. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, until a wooden pick comes out with little moist bits clinging to it.
Transfer the pan to a wire rack to cool. Cut into squares and serve.
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
