Description
Dense, fudgy, and perfectly spiced, these pumpkin blondies feature creamy white chocolate chips for a decadent autumn treat.
Ingredients
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup pumpkin puree (blotted)
1 large egg, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8 inch square baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and brown sugar until smooth and well combined.
Step 3: Add the blotted pumpkin puree, egg, and vanilla extract. Whisk vigorously until the mixture is homogeneous and slightly lightened in color.
Step 4: In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, baking soda, and salt.
Step 5: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the batter.
Step 6: Gently fold in 3/4 cup of the white chocolate chips.
Step 7: Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan and sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of white chocolate chips on top.
Step 8: Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Step 9: Allow the spiced pumpkin blondies with white chocolate to cool completely in the pan before slicing into 16 squares.
Notes
Ensure you blot the pumpkin puree with paper towels to remove excess moisture for the best fudgy texture.
