3. In a separate bowl mix together previously softened cream cheese and sugar.
4. Add the pumpkin puree, spices, and flour (mix it all).
5. Dollop the pumpkin mixture onto the brownie mixture (that has been poured into the baking dish).
6. Swirl through the mixture with a butter knife.
7. Top with the chop nuts. (This step may be left out if you can’t eat nuts)
8. Swirl it through the mixture, incorporating the nuts.
