I promise.
I promise that, after Thanksgiving, I will put the pumpkin away for the rest of the year (at least as far as blog recipes are concerned).
Until that time, here’s a look back at all of the pumpkin-y goodness with which I’ve bombarded you these last two months:
Come June and July, I will still be eating this breakfast cereal. It is much too delicious to stay away until Fall comes around again.
This is a good recipe to bring to parties. The bars always disappear quickly!
Just like regular peanut butter, this recipe is good on toast or muffins, mixed into oatmeal, or just eaten straight from the jar.
Single-Serving Chocolate-Chip Muffin
Lock your doors and draw the shades. This muffin is not for sharing.
When I brought this to a party, even people who said they didn’t like pumpkin kept coming back for more of this addictive dip.
A much healthier version of the giant skillet “cookie pizzas” made famous by BJ’s Brewhouse.
Chocolate Pumpkin-Pie Brownies
Sweet pumpkin, rich chocolate, and creamy vanilla. What more could you possibly ask for? Except maybe a fork. And a napkin.
Delicious chocolate cookie balls, with a soft pumpkin center.
It’s like biting into a warm pumpkin-oatmeal cookie. For breakfast.
Question of the Day:
Do you have any favorite pumpkin recipes?
Feel free to leave links.
I hope you’ll save room for just one more pumpkin recipe on my blog: pumpkin pie! Not just any pumpkin pie, though. After all, this is a chocolate-covered blog…
i can always count on you to come up with several UNIQUE ways to use an ingredient. I’ll take the stuffed cookie please.
We don’t have canned pumpkin where I live. But we had a few pumpkins (for Halloween). And I made (next to jack-o-lanterns) pumpkinscones (served with pumpkinsoup, which we DO have in the supermarkets). And today I made pumpkinrisotto 🙂 . I know, they’re both savoury dishes. But I’m sure you can also make pumpkinricepudding (kind of like risotto :P) with chocolat. Never tried it before, but it sounds nice :D. The only thing is that it takes a lot of time to cut/slice/chop/prepare the pumpkin. So actually we never have/eat them… This year was the first time since 10 years or so…
I think fresh pumpkin is even better than canned. My favorite is kabocha :).
Great, after reading this I now have a huge craving for pumpkin. I love having pumpkin oatmeal for breakfast, though pumpkin bread is probably one of my favorite ways to eat pumpkin. It tastes like fall in cake form!
My 2 favorite pumpkin recipes are pumpkin & blackbean quesadillas and pumpkin curry soup. Not sure that they would belong on a healthy dessert blog though….
My fav is pumpkin pancakes. Your pumpkin peanut butter looks amazing!
Oh, I can never get enough of pumpkin. I get so sad when it’s nowhere to be found in the stores! I welcome any and all pumpkin recipes you have to share. As a personal favorite, I would have to choose pumpkin swirl brownies I once made, but roasted pumpkin is always a winner, too!
Those chocolate stuffed cookies look so good! I’m going to have to remember to make those when I’m home for holiday!
So much pumpkin love! I can’t handle it! lol
Pumpkin is here to stay! For me, it’s a year-round favorite. I wonder how it would mix with silken tofu…like pumpkin mousse? You probably already have a recipe for that…with chocolate chips, of course! =)

I love your idea to use tofu, though. I bet it’d be even creamier than my version!
Hey there –
I love a pumpkin mousse I make – use cashews (soak them for at least 20 min), throw in food processor and toss in some vanilla, spices and pumpkin. Then mix up until smooth. Add a some chia seeds and wirl around a bit more and volia! Delish!
I top mine with toasted almonds and raisins!
