Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Cream Cheese Bread is all the comforts of pumpkin cake, chocolate and cheesecake all rolled into one delicious pound cake.
Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Cream Cheese Bread has been a recipe I’ve been wanting to make for quite some time. Last year I made my Cheesecake Filled Pumpkin Bread Bars and my Chocolate Pumpkin Bread, but the delicious cream cheese, pumpkin and chocolate combo of this recipe is just irresistible.
It was the perfect marriage between the two posts and the double ribbon of cream cheese would solve the original reason I didn’t make the Cheesecake Filled Pumpkin Bread Bars into a loaf.
Here’s a video of this pumpkin, chocolate, cream cheese deliciousness:

When the cheesecake is too thick of a layer it makes the slice break in half when you try and handle it! Lizzy is a baking genius. Making two ribbons of the cream cheese makes this slice of Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Cream Cheese Bread perfectly portable.

Recipe Notes
Inspired by: Your Cup of Cake and a working combination of both Cheesecake Filled Pumpkin Cake Bars and Pumpkin Chocolate Bread from this site.
This post is sponsored by Nestle but all the opinions in it are my own.
Does this recipe need to be refrigerated due to cream cheese ingredient?
Yes 🙂
I have a question for you. Could this Bev made into a roll instead of loaves?
I’m not sure how it would work but if you’re looking for rolls, I would recommend checking out https://sallysbakingaddiction.com . Her recipes are fantastic!
There’s not enough pumpkin mix for the last layer
It sounds like you may have made your other layer too big. I would try and even them out more before layering them in the pan, even pouring them in separate bowls before so you know that you’re layering with the correct amount can help. Hope this helps for next time.
No because you said “half of pumpkin batter” three times. It doesn’t make sense.
In step 6, you’re using half of the pumpkin batter. In step 8, it states to use half of the remaining pumpkin batter for that layer and then using the rest of it in step 10. Hope this clears up any confusion.
