Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

wonderful and easy recipe, I added a little more peanut butter (you can never go wrong with extra peanut butter!)

The taste was good, and it was really easy to make, but I'd advise anyone who makes this to add a few tablespoons more of cocoa, and not to let the initial mixture boil. If you do it has a tendency to burn at the bottom before it boils on top. Just let it melt and go from there.
