Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread

                                 Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread

                                 3 1/2 cups flour

                                 3 cups sugar

                                 2 teaspoons baking soda

                                 1 1/2 teaspoons salt

                                 3 teaspoons cinnamon

                                 1 1/2 teaspoons nutmeg

                                 1 cup oil

                                 3/4 cup water

                                 2 cups canned pumpkin puree

                                 4 eggs

                                 1 cup chocolate chips

                                 Glaze:

                                 powdered sugar

                                 milk

                                 lemon juice

Preheat Oven to 350.

Grease and flour a large loaf pan. Mix dry ingredients together in a bowl and mix wet ingredients in a bowl then mix all together. Fill the loaf pan 3/4 full. Bake for approximately 1 hour.

After the loaf is removed from the oven let it cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes. While the loaf is cooling mix the glaze ingredients. I didn't use an exact measurement..just kind of added a little of each at a time until it was the right consistency..not too runny not too sticky.

After the loaf is cooled then carefully remove it from the pan onto a cookie rack. Place a plate under the rack and drizzle with the glaze. Allow the glaze to harden then slice and enjoy :)
