• 1 cup Pumpkin Puree
• 1 bag Chocolate Chips

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 350. Prepare a 13×9 pan.
2. Mix together the flour, spices, baking soda and salt. (You could use 2 tsp pumpkin pie instead of all the spices if you had it).
3. Cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Add in the egg & vanilla. Beat in the pumpkin puree. (It will look chunky and gross, but don’t worry, that is what it is supposed to look like).
4. Add the in the flour mixture, and stir until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
5. Spread the batter into your pan. Bake for about 35-40 minutes. A toothpick will come out mostly clean. Cool completely in pan before cutting.
