Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bars are a great bar to have around this fall. Full of great pumpkin flavor and chocolate chips.
My kitchen is unpacked!! I have been spoiled with a large kitchen for the last 5 years. The kitchen in our rental is a very nice kitchen, but it is much smaller than my old one. I was only able to unpack about 1/2 of my stuff (I have way too much stuff). It is really nice that we have an unfinished basement to store everything in. I attempted baking for the first time at high altitude this weekend. The results weren’t perfect, but they were not nearly as bad as I feared. Stay tuned for some yummy recipes once I get the hang of it!
Thank you to Kita (Pass the Sushi), Liz (That Skinny Chick Can Bake), and Kelly (Eat Yourself Skinny) for filling in for me last week. You all did a wonderful job, and I appreciate your help!
These bars are one of the last things I made in my old kitchen. My husband and I were both going to meet friends for lunch, and I had a few things to use in my pantry so I made these bars. Unfortunately my husband forgot his plate of treats on the counter. Rami, this is what you missed out on! Shannon on the other hand received her plate of goodies! I received an email from her later that night asking if I posted this recipe yet, because they were TO DIE FOR!!! Well here it is! This would make a great alternative to Pumpkin Pie this week!

My son would LOVE these! I feature a pumpkin chocolate chip muffin on my site and I can't keep them in the house long....they go SO fast and he keeps requesting them, which of course I love. I will have to try these for him!
