PUMPKIN BLONDIES WITH CHOCOLATE AND PECANS
Festive and earthy, these bars are made with canned pumpkin purée, which nudges them toward cake territory while maintaining that chewy, rich and irresistible blondie texture. For a swirly chocolate ribbon effect, work with butter that is still ever-so-slightly warm, so that the chocolate chunks have a chance to melt a bit as you fold them in.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and line an 8-by-8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on two sides.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the butter, pumpkin purée, sugars, egg yolk and vanilla extract. Fold in the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt and most of the chocolate and pecans. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan, smooth into an even layer and sprinkle the top with the remaining chocolate and pecans.
- Bake until the top looks dry and set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached, 25 to 35 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through. Transfer to a rack to cool completely.
- To serve, use the paper overhang to transfer the blondies to a cutting board. Cut into 16 pieces. Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 1 month.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9x9 pan with foil and grease it. Set aside.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Continue to cook, stirring or swirling the pan occasionally until the butter becomes a golden brown color and starts to smell nutty. Watch it carefully and make sure the bits on the bottom of the pan do not burn. Remove from heat and cool the brown butter slightly.
- In a large bowl combine brown butter, brown sugar, egg, vanilla, and pumpkin, whisking until combined.
- In a separate bowl, combine flour, pie spice, baking powder, and salt. Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and stir until combined. Stir in the white chocolate chips and pecans (I reserve a few to press onto the top of the batter, as it makes for a prettier appearance).
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out without raw batter on it.
- Cool slightly before cutting and serving.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prepare an 8x8 pan by lining it with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine pumpkin puree and melted coconut oil. Add in room temperature maple syrup, eggs, vanilla extract and pumpkin pie spice and stir until combined. Be sure all of your ingredients are room temperature in order to avoid the coconut oil becoming hard chunks as you mix.
- Add your flour, baking powder, salt, and roughly chopped pecans and chocolate chips to the mixture. The chopping will ensure you have more mix-ins in every bite! Stir until just combined.
- Spread the mixture evenly into your pan, and sprinkle additional pecans and chocolate tips on top if desired.
- Bake for 35 minutes, and then remove the pan and allow it to cool for 10 minutes before slicing the blondies into 16 squares.
BUTTER-PECAN BLONDIES
Blondies prove that pantry staples like flour, brown sugar, butter, and eggs can be spun into pure gold-and without a mixer, at that. Amp up their flavor with a touch of dark rum and a tumble of toasted pecans, and a new favorite is born.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spread pecans on a rimmed baking sheet; toast until fragrant, 6 to 7 minutes. Let cool, then chop.
- Brush a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with butter, then dust with flour, tapping out excess. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour and salt. In a large bowl, whisk together butter and 2 cups brown sugar until combined. Add eggs; whisk until combined. Add vanilla and rum. Fold in flour mixture with a spatula until just combined (do not overmix). Fold in half of nuts.
- Transfer batter to prepared dish; smooth top with an offset spatula. Sprinkle top with remaining nuts and 2 tablespoons brown sugar. Bake until golden around edges and a tester inserted in center comes out with very few crumbs, 22 to 24 minutes.
- Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely before cutting into squares. Blondies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days.
CARAMEL-PUMPKIN BLONDIES
My friend Liz shared a similar caramel pumpkin blondie recipe years ago, and I've made it dozens of times with various tweaks. This is my favorite version, even though the caramel makes it sticky and messy it's totally worth it. It's forgiving, so feel free to alter and experiment! Store in an airtight container.

Tips:
- Use fresh pumpkin puree. Canned pumpkin puree can be used, but fresh pumpkin puree will give your blondies a more intense pumpkin flavor.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your blondies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the blondies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking the blondies will make them dry and crumbly.
- Let the blondies cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to hold their shape.
- Store the blondies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Pumpkin blondies with chocolate and pecans are a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for fall. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you are looking for a snack, a dessert, or a gift, these blondies are sure to please.
