Weight Watcher Wednesday - Pumpkin Chocolate Brownie Bites


Kristen at Slender Kitchen has graciously allowed me to use this photo and the recipe from her site. This is just one of many great recipes. I chose this recipe and am looking forward to making it because I love all things pumpkin and when you add chocolate, well...you just can't go wrong!  Thanks, Kristen, for a great recipe!

This simple recipe combines pumpkin, chocolate, and chocolate chips and makes a delicious brownie bite. The recipe was inspired by Chocolate Covered Katie and is a great recipe to use up any last pumpkin you have sitting around. This could also be used to create a pan of brownies in an 8 by 8 dish.
