I ate this for breakfast. Is that wrong? It’s more like a cake, but I was hungry, and the Nutella drizzle was calling my name! I can’t seem to get enough pumpkin this season, and it’s not over yet! I have at least half a dozen recipes just calling out to be developed!
Enjoy!

I’m a new convert to pumpkin and chocolate so this is right up my alley. And of course it’s okay to eat it for breakfast…it has pumpkin in it!

Looks devine! I love anything pumpkin! and I say if having that for breakfast is wrong, then I’d just have to be wrong!!
Oh now this just looks awesome!! Really glad that I found your blog!!
This sounds so good, what is it with me and pumpkin this time of year, I just can’t get enough.
Alicia- glad you are here
Mindie- I can’t get enough either!
Yup I am in the same boat as you…it is all about the pumpkin right now! I heart pumpkin and chocolate…in fact I just made 2 recipes using both those ingredients:-) I am thinking you and I were separated at birth!!!
Of course you can eat it for breakfast!
I just barely tasted Nutella for the first time! Oh man – it is heavenly. Your dessert sounds divine!
It’s pumpkin…it’s healthy. Of COURSE you can eat it for breakfast.
I’d love it if you’d link up to my new recipe party: http://www.alittlenosh.net/2011/09/inaugural-linky-party.html
Are you kidding me?! These sound awesome!
I love pumpkin also. I put up 100 lbs of pumpkins as soon as they start showing up in the markets. I usually have to make any where of 25 -50 pumpkin pies a year. The whole neighbor hood get one for Christmas and the Fire Dept and Sheriffs Dept. That usually leaves me a few pounds to play with. I know what I am going to do with some of it now. Thank you.
