Pumpkin Spice Blondie Cookie Bars are from a recipe straight off the back of a bag of Nestle Toll House Pumpkin Spice Flavored Morsels.
For those of you who do not have access to pumpkin flavored baking morsels, don’t worry because you can make the bars with any type of baking chips or chunks. But for those of you who delight in trying interesting seasonal flavored baking chips, the pumpkin spice flavored morsels can usually be found during the fall at Target.
I’m okay with pumpkin spice, but what I love about this recipe is the bar cookie base! It’s neither too dry nor too sweet. Also, the recipe is baked in a 15×10 inch pan so you get a slightly larger yield and thinner, cookie-like bars.
The reviews on Very Best Baking are a mixed bag, with a few people citing what seems to be an excess of baking powder. I used the full 2 1/2 teaspoons of Rumford brand, which to me tastes less salty and metallic than some others. I’ll definitely make these again, but probably with white chips and macadamia nuts.

These sure look yummy and it would be fun to try a handful of those chips!

Can’t wait to hear what you think about the cookies!

I love blondes and the idea of making these with different chips sounds super appealing. Glad to know it’s a good base!
I have the chocolate chip cookie dough from the previous post in the fridge. I’m trying to be patient during the refrigeration period.
