I've said it before and I'll say it again: Pumpkin and chocolate were meant to be together, especially in these pumpkin chocolate chip blondies!

Ingredients

  • 2 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ginger
  • ½ teaspoon ground cloves
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 16 tablespoon unsalted butter softened to room temperature
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup brown sugar packed
  • 1 egg
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 15 oz. can pumpkin puree
  • 2 cups white chocolate chips plus more for topping the blondies
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips plus more for topping the blondies

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 13×9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, making sure to leave some overhang on the long sides. Spray the parchment paper with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, whisk the flour, spices, baking soda, and salt together. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugars until smooth.
  • Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until combined.
  • Add the pumpkin puree and beat until combined.
  • Reduce the speed to low, and, little by little, add the dry ingredients.
  • Add the chocolate chips and mix until they are distributed throughout the batter.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan in an even layer. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick, when inserted into the center, comes out clean.
  • Allow the blondies to cool completely before cutting into squares.

Notes

Note: Once you beat in the pumpkin puree, the mixture will look kind of curdled, and that this is completely normal. You're doing just fine.
