Instructions
0 Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8-by-8-inch baking pan with aluminum foil, spray with cooking spray; set aside. 1 In a large, microwave-safe bowl melt the butter, about 1 minute on high power. 2 Wait momentarily before adding the egg so you donโt scramble it. Add the egg, pumpkin, brown sugar, vanilla, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and whisk until smooth. 3 Add the flour and stir until just combined, donโt overmix. 4 Stir in 1 1/4 cups chocolate chips. 5 Turn batter out into prepared pan, smoothing the top lightly with a spatula. 6 Evenly sprinkle with 2 tablespoons chocolate chips, smoothly the top lightly with a spatula. 7 Bake for about 32 to 33 minutes, or until done. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean, or with a few moist crumbs, but no batter. The moisture content in pumpkin varies, as do climates and ovens; bake until yours are done. 8 Allow bars to cool in pan for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving.View original recipe
