chocolate pumpkin crunch cake


we had a chili party at my house on saturday and i wanted to make a dessert that was easy but still reminded us it was fall.. we needed reminding i think it was 78 degrees saturday afternoon.. we had a fire going in our fire pit but strictly for ambiance there was no need for its warmth.. i had on a sleeveless shirt and i didn't even need a jacket when the sun went down.. but nonetheless this cake did the trick.. it was easy and so good..
