Step 1: Heat oven to 350F. Grease a 12-cup Bundt pan, then dust with flour or cocoa.
Step 2: In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and ginger. Set aside.
Step 3: In a large mixing bowl (KitchenAid mixer), cream the butter, sugars, and vanilla until fluffy.
Step 4: Add eggs (one at a time), beating well after each addition.
Step 5: On low speed, alternately add dry ingredients and pumpkin.
Step 6: Scoop 1 cup batter into a small bowl. Mix in melted chocolate.
Step 7: Pour about 3 cups of the pumpkin batter into Bundt pan. Make a small groove in the center of the batter, creating a ring. Spoon or pour the chocolate batter into the groove. Top with the remaining batter, smoothing the top.
Step 8: Bake 45-50 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Cool on wire rack for 15 minutes then remove from pan and cool completely.
Step 9: Prepare chocolate glaze: In saucepan, bring cream to a boil. Remove from heat. Add chocolate chips and butter. Stir until smooth. Cool about an hour or until thick and pourable.
