With October right around the corner Fall is in full swing. The weather here in Massachusetts is starting to get a bit chilly but can still be warm by mid afternoon. These are the days I love to bake but sometimes I don’t want to put in all the time waiting for something to finish baking and cooling so here’s a recipe that has all the Fall feels without the waiting and baking!

This recipe is dedicated to my Nana. She passed away this week and was the matriarch of the family who also had a knack for baking. She was the original artist who painted huge watercolors that were not only beautiful but full of life.

One of her favorite treats was chocolate. If it had chocolate in it she was a fan. So with this time of year it was appropriate to not only make a pumpkin treat but have it mixed with chocolate because Nana loved it so much. This recipe is a no bake and takes less than fifteen minutes from start to finish.

Autumn is in it’s full splendor here in New England so apple and pumpkin season are here! Having two of my favorite food seasons overlap which is fine by me because they are so much fun to make special recipes with.

So coming up with a new pumpkin recipe seemed very appropriate…
