Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish and line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the canned pumpkin with cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg until smooth.
  3. Using an electric mixer, beat the mascarpone and cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add in sugar, flour, vanilla extract, and egg yolks.
  4. Fold the prepared pumpkin mixture into the cheesecake filling, reserving half a cup for swirling.
  5. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
  6. In a separate bowl, mix melted butter and sugar until combined. Add eggs and vanilla extract.
  7. Combine the wet and dry ingredients, stirring until no visible flour remains.
  8. Spread half of the brownie batter in the baking dish, spoon pumpkin cheesecake mixture over, and dollop the reserved brownie batter on top.
  9. Bake for about 45 minutes until the edges are set. A toothpick should come out with a few moist crumbs.
  10. Cool completely in the pan, then refrigerate for at least one hour before slicing.
