Coconut Pumpkin Bread

We really liked this bread and it made the kitchen Autumn kissed. I cut up some chocolate from a semi-sweet baking square and pushed this into the top of the batter in one of the loaves. It was amazing!
A hint on cutting up chocolate: a serrated knife (like a bread knife) works wonders!
