Very moist and yummy. Be sure to cook the caramel long enough so that it thickens.

Awesome!-but you could 1/2 the icing- it's way too much. I also poked holes in the cake to let it soak into the cake.

Came out great and smelled terrific. Seemed a little dry, but with ice cream it was great. The chocolate lovers in the group thought it was wonderful and tasted a little like gingerbread. I would make this one again.

This cake is delicious. Very moist. I love the flavor combination of pumpkin and chocolate. The added flavor of the icing makes those flavors especially good.

To make this a bit healthier, I used evaporated milk instead of heavy cream. The cake is fantastic! It's moist and holds up well over a few days. I didn't make the caramel frosting, but made a vanilla drizzle. Will definitely make this again.

This was AWESOME! I made it for Thanksgiving this year and everyone LOVED it. Got many comments on the good texture and moistness. The flavor was wonderful - I would have never thought to mix pumpkin and chocolate. I will probably make this recipe for many Thanksgivings to come!

I made this cake for Thanksgiving dinner, and it was a huge hit! I made it just as suggested, and it was easy. The only thing I will do differently next time is to sift the confectioners sugar for the icing....it was a little lumpy, still wonderful, but it looked a little funny! Will make this again.

I added half a bag of semisweet chips. I think next time I will add the whole bag and more of the pumpkin pie spice. I too had problems with the icing - it turned out very grainy. Still, the guests loved it!

I made this recipe last Thanksgiving and I will probably make it again this Thanksgiving. It was so good! Not something you want to eat if your on a diet, but oh so good! After trying another similar recipe, I will definitely be going back to this one and staying with it!
