MY SPIN. I'm not a major fan of icing so I didn't make the topping. I did, however, put the chopped walnuts on the batter before baking. Either way you choose to do it, it's still only 2 PointsPlus™ per serving!! And I did add the pumpkin pie spice  This is truly easy and has that awesome YUM factor!

Now for the 'legal mumbo-jumbo' to keep me out of court! *The PointsPlus™ value for this recipe was calculated by me (Jan Gomes) and is not an endorsement or approval of this recipe by Weight Watchers International, Inc., the owner of the PointsPlus™ registered trademark.*
