Step-by-step

  • Preheat oven to 180c | 350F.
  • Grease a 9x11-inch baking pan with cooking spray; line with baking/parchment paper (to remove cake slices easier) and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the egg, brown sugar, sweetener/sugar, pumpkin, oil, honey and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
  • Add the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt, and stir until just combined (don't over-beat.
  • )Fold through chocolate chips, set aside and make the cheesecake layerCombine cream cheese, flour, cinnamon and sweetener/sugar in a medium sized bowl, and beat until smooth.
  • Pour the cake batter into prepared pan and evenly smooth the top lightly with a spatula.
  • Pour the cheesecake mixture over the top, and using the back of a knife, swirl small amounts of the blondie batter gently into the cheesecake mix until a marble effect is created on the top (not too much because you still want both layers).
  • Bake for about 38 - 45 minutes (depending on your oven), or until done.
  • A toothpick inserted in the center should come out mostly clean/slightly dirty, with a few moist crumbs BUT no batter.
  • Allow cake to cool in pan for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving.
