Enjoy these Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bars, a soft, perfectly spiced fall treat. We fixed the common flaws in old recipes to give you a foolproof, flavorful dessert you will want to make every autumn.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (plus extra for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and pumpkin puree until just combined.
  4. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just incorporated. Do not overmix.
  6. Fold in 1 cup of chocolate chips.
  7. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan. Sprinkle extra chocolate chips over the top.
  8. Bake for 28 to 32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with moist crumbs attached.
  9. Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.

Notes

  • Use pure pumpkin puree for the best flavor and texture; avoid pumpkin pie filling.
  • For extra gooey centers, press a few extra chocolate chips into the top of the batter right before it goes into the oven.
  • These bars are best stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to four days.
