In this moist, tasty quick bread, the bite of the spices goes perfectly with the sweet creaminess of the chocolate. I highly recommend wrapping this up and saving it for a day before you eat it, so the flavors really develop. I know, I know, easier said than done.

Ingredients

• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (softened)
• 1 cup sugar
• 1/3 cup brown sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup pure pumpkin puree - canned or homemade
• 1/3 milk (you can substitute water)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
• 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees
• Grease 9 1/4 x 4 1/2 inch loaf pan
• Beat the butter until creamy (approx. 30 seconds).
• Add the sugars, and beat 3 - 4 minutes until light and creamy.
• Add eggs one at a time.
• Add pumpkin puree, blending on low speed just until combined.
• Mix the milk and vanilla together in a separate bowl.
• Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and spices over the pumpkin mixture.
• Mix the flour and pumpkin mixtures together, gradually pouring in the milk and vanilla. Mix just until well blended, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary.
• Stir in the chocolate chips.
• Spread batter into pan(s).
• Loaves take about 60 minutes to bake. I suggest starting the checking for little loaves at around 50. They're done when a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
• Enjoy!
