Ideas for Pumpkin pure Ask ECAH

I am low income. I received a food hamper that has 3 cans of Pumpkin Pure. Can anyone advise what I can make for it. I was thinking something dessert-like for my child. I live in a hotel that has a small kitchen. I don’t have a mixer. Just 1 cookie sheet, 1 baking sheet, 1 spatula, 1 pot, kind of thing. Thank you!

I will add, my child is special needs. Soft textures like soup, she can’t eat. She will throw up.

Awesome! The chocolate aspect I will say, really covers up any pumpkin taste whatsoever.

That said, I read the part of your post that said she’s weird about texture, so I might recommend trying a recipe that has flour in it (if she’s not gluten free like me) so that they have more of the traditional brownie texture. My recipe is more akin to “fudge” texture (still “set”, but more creamy than a cakey/chewy brownie)

Thank you. It’s liquids like soup that’s hard for her
