Do you guys keep cookies, brownies and bars in your freezer like me? They're there just in case the sweet tooth strikes and you need something in a pinch! Lately my freezer has been stocked with Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bars and they are EVERYTHING! I just break off a little piece every afternoon when I need a little treat and I'm on my way in 10 seconds flat. All the chocolate chips interspersed into these bars make these majorly delish.

It's a mash up of a cookie and brownie into Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bars and really, what more in life could you ask for? They work for breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert. They make for a gorgeous hostess gift, or a present for your boss or co-workers. They also work really well when you're all alone and need a treat. Basically, you can't go wrong. And I'll be whipping these up on a weekly basis for the next 5 weeks! You're welcome in advance 🙂

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¾ teaspoon ginger
  • ½ teaspoon allspice
  • ½ teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter room temperature
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ¾ cup white sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 cups chocolate chips divided

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, cloves, baking soda and salt. Give the dry ingredients a quick whisk and then set this mixture aside.
  • In a large stand mixer, combine the butter, white sugar and brown sugar. Turn the mixer on medium high and cream together the butter and sugars, making sure to scrape down the sides so everything is incorporated. Add the egg, vanilla and pumpkin and combine. Add the dry ingredients into the mixer and mix until the dry mixture is just combined. Add in 1 ½ cups of the chocolate chips and mix to combine.
  • Spray a 13x9 baking sheet with baking spray. Place the mixture into the baking sheet and level it out. Sprinkle on the remaining ½ cup chocolate chips.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes and then remove from the oven. Let cool before cutting and serving.

Notes

I love to freeze these to always have some on hand!

    Amazing and believe me when I say they got demolished! Also used a glass 13x9 and greased the parchment. Made it easy to lift right out and cut when cooled.

    This is the best pumpkin dessert I've ever made. They are always a hit with both kids and adults, and they are my favorite. I try to find any excuse I can to make them!

    My husband's coworkers devoured these in record time! They were really good fresh out of the oven and equally good the next day.

    I used a baking sheet pan lined with parchment paper and trader joe's organic pumpkin. I have a convection oven and the recipe took 30 minutes as indicated.

    Amazing. Def more cake than brownie or cookie but the flavor combination is fantastic!! I'll probably make another batch using the leftover pumpkin!

    Funny story- I made these and gave some to my sister who loved them so much she asked for the recipe so I set her here. She asked what I did
    With the rest of the pumpkin purée, confused I asked what she meant. That’s when I noticed I added an entire can, not just the 1 cup t recipe calls for but it was a very happy accident. I don’t know what the texture is suppose to be like if you follow the recipe exactly, but these were moist and delicious and a family favorite.
