Yield 24 squares

Number Of Ingredients 10

-2 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
-1 tablespoon pumpkin-pie spice
-1 teaspoon baking soda
-3/4 teaspoon salt
-1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
-1 1/4 cups sugar
-1 large egg
-2 teaspoons vanilla extract
-1 cup canned pumpkin purée
-1 package (12 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350°. Line bottom and sides of a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with foil, leaving an overhang on all sides. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, pie spice, baking soda, and salt; set aside. 2. With an electric mixer, cream butter and sugar on medium-high speed until smooth; beat in egg and vanilla until combined. Beat in pumpkin purée (mixture may appear curdled). Reduce speed to low, and mix in dry ingredients until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips. 3. Spread batter evenly in prepared pan. Bake until edges begin to pull away from sides of pan and a toothpick inserted in center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool completely in pan. 4. Lift cake from pan (using foil as an aid). Peel off foil, and use a serrated knife to cut into 24 squares. Note: If you can't find pumpkin-pie spice, substitute 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon, 3/4 teaspoon ginger, 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, and 1/2 teaspoon each allspice and cloves (all ground).

Tips:

  • Use fresh pumpkin purée: Fresh pumpkin purée gives the squares a richer flavor and texture. You can make your own purée by roasting a pumpkin and then blending the flesh until smooth, or you can use canned pumpkin purée.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the squares tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the squares until they are just set: Overbaking the squares will make them dry. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the squares cool completely before cutting them: This will help them hold their shape.
  • Store the squares in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
