I have been making it for at least a decade, and if I&#8217;m invited to a potluck or party during&nbsp;pumpkin season, you can bet I have a pan of these in hand when I show up. I&#8217;ve yet to bring any home.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What makes these bars so dang good? Glad you asked. It&#8217;s the combination of flavors and textures. These are cake-like bars, with a gorgeously light yet moist crumb. The bursts of melted chocolate and the delicious&nbsp;cream cheese frosting&nbsp;compliment the&nbsp;cozy pumpkin spice flavor&nbsp;of the bar itself to create a symphony of&nbsp;fall flavors&nbsp;that should not be missed. I know it sounds like I&#8217;m overselling this, but I&#8217;m not.

They bind the ingredients together, and provide moisture to give these bars that delightful crumb!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Vegetable Oil:&nbsp;<\/strong>Adding fats to your baked good creates that moist and tender texture you want.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Granulated Sugar:&nbsp;<\/strong>Adding both sweetness and structure, we have white sugar in this recipe.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pumpkin Pur\u00e9e:&nbsp;<\/strong>Do not confuse this with&nbsp;pumpkin pie filling. You want a plain old&nbsp;can of pumpkin.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>All&nbsp;Purpose Flour:&nbsp;<\/strong>I have only tested this recipe with all-purpose flour. If you try something else, let us know how it goes in the comments!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Baking Powder: Baking powder is a leavening agent. You can thank it (and its friend baking soda) for adding that touch of lightness that make these bars so irresistible.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cinnamon:&nbsp;<\/strong>The warm flavor of cinnamon gives this recipe its fall feel!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Salt:&nbsp;<\/strong>Salt brings out all the other flavors.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Baking Soda:&nbsp;<\/strong>A second leavening agent to make sure your bars have the perfect texture.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Chocolate Chips:&nbsp;<\/strong>Where would&nbsp;pumpkin chocolate chip bars&nbsp;be without chocolate chips? I love&nbsp;semi-sweet chocolate chips&nbsp;in this recipe.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cream Cheese: T<\/strong>his forms the base of the frosting. You want your cream cheese to be at&nbsp;room temperature&nbsp;so that your frosting is nice and smooth.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Butter:&nbsp;<\/strong>This plus the cream cheese makes a positively decadent frosting base. You also want your butter to be softened before you mix it into the frosting. I recommend using&nbsp;unsalted butter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Powdered Sugar:&nbsp;<\/strong>This adds sweetness to the frosting.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Vanilla Extract:&nbsp;<\/strong>Vanilla is the final touch to a perfectly tangy&nbsp;cream cheese frosting.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Instructions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1 | Mix the&nbsp;wet ingredients<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In a&nbsp;large mixing bowl, mix your eggs, oil, pumpkin puree, and sugar. This is the base for your this&nbsp;pumpkin bar recipe!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2 | Add the&nbsp;dry ingredients<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. You should have a thick, cake-like batter. Last, you&#8217;ll add all but a few of the chocolate chips. You want to keep a few back to sprinkle over the top so that there&#8217;s&nbsp;lots of gooey chocolate chips&nbsp;throughout your entire bar.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3 | Bake<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Line a 9&#215;13 baking pan with&nbsp;parchment paper&nbsp;and pour your pumpkin bar batter into the&nbsp;prepared baking pan&nbsp;Smooth it over with a spatula and sprinkle the&nbsp;remaining chocolate chips&nbsp;over the&nbsp;top of the bars.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bake at 350\u00b0 for 25-30 minutes. These guys are done when a knife stuck into the center comes out clean.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/homanathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pumpkin-Bars-Story-2.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/homanathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pumpkin-Bars-Story-2.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-25832\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/homanathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pumpkin-Bars-Story-2.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/homanathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pumpkin-Bars-Story-2.jpg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/homanathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pumpkin-Bars-Story-2.jpg?resize=1152%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1152w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/homanathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pumpkin-Bars-Story-2.jpg?resize=640%2C853&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/homanathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pumpkin-Bars-Story-2.jpg?resize=150%2C200&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/homanathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pumpkin-Bars-Story-2.jpg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4 | Whip the cream cheese and butter<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While your bars are baking, you can make the frosting. Start by whipping the cream cheese and butter in the&nbsp;bowl of a stand mixer. You can also do this with an&nbsp;electric hand mixer.&nbsp;Room temperature&nbsp;cream cheese and butter will whip up smoothly. If your cheese and butter are too cold, you might get clumps.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 5 | Finish the frosting<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Add the powdered sugar 1\/2 cup at a time and mix it in on&nbsp;low speed. If you add too much at once, you can end up with a powdered sugar blizzard in your kitchen! Once the frosting is finished, you can place it in the fridge to wait for the bars.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 6 | Put it all together!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For&nbsp;best results, wait for the bars to cool completely. I can&#8217;t emphasize how important this is. If you frost your bars too soon, you will get melted frosting soup. It will taste just fine, but it won&#8217;t look very appealing. If you need to speed up the cooling time, you can pop the baked bars into the freezer for 15-20 minutes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once your bars are completely cool. spread the frosting evenly over the tops. Your bars are ready to serve!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/homanathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/Pumpkin-Bars-1.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"598\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/homanathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/Pumpkin-Bars-1.jpg?resize=900%2C598&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bars | Homan at Home\" class=\"wp-image-10634\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Substitutions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a few places ou can change things up in these&nbsp;cake-like pumpkin bars.

Play around with these flavors to make these bars your own!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>For the&nbsp;cream cheese frosting:<\/strong>&nbsp;These bars are just fine without any frosting, if you don&#8217;t have the ingredients.
