Pumpkin! I went looking for this pumpkin chocolate chip blondie bars recipe as I had a little bit of canned pumpkin left and wanted to put it to good use. I wanted something pumpkin-y, but not over the top. Nothing that left you feeling “Man, I just had some pumpkin pie”. But something that left you feeling “Man, I just had something delicious.”
That’s what this recipe is. It’s a blondie cookie bar (why are they called blondies anyway?!), but made with pumpkin. And I threw on some chocolate chips cause You Only Live Once, right? Right.
These would be great with coffee – IF I was a coffee drinker, but alas, I am not. Instead, my boys scarfed them down with a glass of Almond Milk. So, I guess you could say that they are officially “Kid Tested, Mother Approved!”
