1 cup brown sugar
½ cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 cups pumpkin puree
1 cup chocolate chips

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
Whisk flour, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon sugar, and salt together in a large bowl.
Beat butter, brown sugar, and white sugar together in the bowl of an electric stand mixer until creamy. Beat in eggs and vanilla extract until creamy. Beat in pumpkin until combined.

Tips:

Use fresh pumpkin puree. Fresh pumpkin puree has a more intense flavor than canned puree, and it will make your blondies more moist. To make fresh pumpkin puree, simply roast a pumpkin until it is tender, then scoop out the flesh and puree it in a food processor.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your blondies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Use a baking pan that is at least 9x13 inches. A smaller pan will make your blondies too thick and cakey.
Bake the blondies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached. If the toothpick comes out clean, the blondies are overbaked.
Let the blondies cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to hold their shape.

Conclusion:

Caramel pumpkin blondies are a delicious and easy-to-make fall treat. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or just a snack at home. With their moist texture, rich caramel flavor, and pumpkin spice, these blondies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
