 Layla (Oregon) says:
for variant, separate 1/3 pie mixture and stir in 2-3 tbs cocoa powder. pour 1/2 remaining pie mixture into shell. smooth. add cocoa mixture; smooth lightly. add remaining pie mixture and smooth lightly. swirl lightly with butter knife. fresh pie-pumpkin puree works better than canned.
