  • In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt; whisk to mix.
  • Pour vegetable oil and vanilla extract into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
  • Add pumpkin puree and mix until you have a thick and smooth batter.
  • Fold in the chopped semisweet chocolate until evenly distributed.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.
  • Sprinkle the remaining semisweet chocolate over the batter.
  • Bake for 28-30 minutes; check doneness with a toothpick for moist crumbs.
  • Let the brownies cool in the pan for one hour before cutting.
