When fall hits, I love everything pumpkin, and these pumpkin chocolate chip bars are so easy to make. These cross between a cookie, a cake, and a brownie. In other words, this dessert is yummy!
Mark and I like all kinds of treats, particularly if they contain chocolate. We also love the flavor of pumpkin, so this combination is a special treat.
They are so moist and chewy. I love making Pumpkin Cookies, but I have to keep scooping them on the baking sheet. Well, this recipe is a blessing if you just want to scoop them once!

You just spread the batter evenly in the baking pan and bake it. We especially enjoy our treats if they have a moist texture. These bars truly satisfy our cravings.
Then as it bakes, you smell this wonderful pumpkin aroma throughout the house, it’s called yummy yum! Now, I love cinnamon, but pumpkin spice is not my favorite.
You can use either one, but I didn’t use the pumpkin pie spice with this version of the recipe. Either way, these little bars rock with flavor!

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bars
Step One
We had a shortage in the stores of pumpkin puree for a month or two but it’s back in stock now, until everyone buys it up! Gather together all the ingredients so you’re ready to go.

Step Two
Preheat the oven to (350°F) = (176°C) degrees. Grease a 9-inch by 13-inch baking pan, or use parchment paper to line your pan. Use a hand or stand mixer to cream the butter and sugar until smooth and creamy.

Step Three
Add the egg and vanilla until thoroughly mixed.

Step Four
Grab a bowl and whisk the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt until thoroughly mixed and fluffy.

Step Five
Add the pumpkin puree and mix, it will have a curdled look to it. It’s perfect.

Step Six
Now, add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix until smooth.

Step Seven
Fold in the chocolate chips gently. Spread the mixture evenly in your greased baking pan.

Step Eight
Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the bars comes out clean. Cool on a cooling rack and cut when completely cool. Enjoy. These are so moist they will be a family favorite.

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bars
How do I store these?
They stay moist for 4-5 days if stored with plastic wrap or in an airtight container. They become more moist during the second day.
Can I freeze these?
Once you bake these, you can store them in serving sizes in airtight containers for up to 3 months. We often bake more than we can eat during the first day or two, so putting them in the freezer is part of our plan for special treats like this.
Final Word
I really hope you try my pumpkin chocolate chip bars because they are so easy to make, and you can share some with your neighbors. Who doesn’t love something homemade, right? Please keep prepping; we must. May God Bless this world, Linda
