Chocolate Pumpkin bread

This is a delicious recipe that should please both the pumpkin lovers and the chocolate lovers. I simply love the marbled orange and black look. Serve up with some flavored cream cheese and you have a real treat. Enjoy!!
 
 
 
 
2 cups white whole wheat flour
2-1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon Ground Ginger
1/4 teaspoon Ground Nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon Ground Cloves
2 large eggs
1 15 ounces can of pumpkin
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons Mazola Oil
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted in a double boiler
 
Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices in a medium bowl and set aside
Whisk eggs until light and fluffy
Add pumpkin, brown sugar, milk, oil, and vanilla
Add flour mixture to the pumpkin mixture to combine, but do not overmix
Separate the batter into 2 bowls
Add melted chocolate to one of the bowls and combine
Spread a layer of pumpkin batter into a loaf pan prepared with cooking spray
Spread a layer of chocolate batter
Continue alternating batters but be sure to finish with the pumpkin batter
Use a knife to swirl the chocolate into the pumpkin batter but do not mix
