This came from the Nov 2000 issue of Bon Appetit. It's super easy to make and absolutely delicious, everyone always asks for the recipe. It does not have an overwhelming pumpkin flavor. It's very moist and sweet. Don't sprinkle on the powdered sugar until the last minute, right before you serve, or it will melt into the bread.

2 cups half-and-half
1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
1 cup packed dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar
