This pumpkin cake is a little different because of the hint of chocolate. So moist and tender, it'll have guests hoping for seconds! —Katie Wollgast, Florissant, Missouri

I loved the combination of spices in this cake. I thought it would rise much higher but it was rather flat and dense when I took it out of the oven. I wonder if anyone else experienced this.

My friends and I were not disappointed. All wanted the recipe. My only change was to bake it in 2 8x8 pans (so I could freeze one) and add frosting. I'll definitely bake it again!

very, very good cake! So light and healthy. This is such a moist cake! Love the spices in it. I think it needed a little bit of extra something in it though, as it didn't seem like it was sweet enough. I think next time, I will make a drizzle mix of powdered sugar and milk and put that over it. I will be making this again for Thanksgiving.

Very very moist. Instead of sprinkling confectioner's sugar, I made a vanilla creme frosting and drizzled over it. Made it taste even sweeter! Family enjoyed it!

This was delicious; moist and delectable. I used prunes instead of raisins and doubled the chocolate chips. I think next time, I'll add some pecans.

This cake is delicious! I used 1/2 cup regular chocolate chips, white whole wheat flour, a plain skim milk that went out of date 6 days ago instead of buttermilk. Sooo yummy!~ Theresa

I had just baked it and it was a little warm. Had my card ladies over, served it with ice cream. Everyone just thought it was great.
