First, preheat the oven as directed on the box. Make sure to spray your baking pan with nonstick spray, then set it aside.  In a medium bowl, prepare the brownie mix according to the directions on the box. (If needed, adjust ingredients to the box mix.) Next, add the chocolate chips to the brownie mix and set aside. In another medium bowl, mix the pumpkin, cream cheese, sugar, and pumpkin pie spice until smooth, then set aside. Pour half of the brownie mix into the prepared pan and spread out until the entire bottom of the pan is fully covered. 

Then, spoon the pumpkin filling onto the brownie batter in chunks or spread it out evenly. Cover the pumpkin filling with the rest of the brownie batter and smooth out the top. Now your mixture is ready to bake! Bake the brownies according to the directions on the box. If you feel you need to bake for longer, add minutes based on your preference. Since there’s quite a bit of depth with the pumpkin mix, it’s recommended to bake longer. Finally, let the brownies cool completely before slicing and serving. And there you have it, the perfect recipe for Pumpkin Brownies!
