These Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Squares are an easy-to-make fall treat. They’ll be gobbled up lickety split.
Fall is my favorite time of year. I really love the chill that creeps into the air come September and gets gradually more BRRRR and biting as we approach Thanksgiving. I’m like a little kid again when I see teaser snowflakes, hinting at what’s to come in just a matter of a month or so. Fall foods are- undoubtedly- the best foods of the year. Cranberry, maple, pecan, pumpkin and butternut squash have made several welcome appearances in my house lately. It feels comforting to eat them, and I cherish their special time. Before you know it, pumpkin will be out of style… out of season, so we must savor every bite.
These Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Squares are a treat to make and share. The recipe doles out a big pan of goodies. If you’re not into sharing, slices freeze beautifully in little ziplocs (which I love to have around for instant snacking… or for tucking into lunchboxes).
The result is a tender cake dotted with mini chocolate chips. The combination is lovely, and it’s the perfect, casual dessert for… fall. Because you don’t really need a reason to bake something like this, do you? Of course not. Just celebrate fall, silly! 🙂
