These moist pumpkin bars are mildly spiced and have a sprinkling of chocolate chips throughout. They're topped with a silky fudge frosting for a delicious fall treat!
116 oz containerstore-bought chocolate fudge frostingoptional
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a sheet pan (12x18")* with cooking spray.
In a large bowl (or bowl of a stand mixer), combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.
Add the oil, pumpkin and eggs and mix until smooth; add ¾ of the mini chocolate chips and stir until well-dispersed.
Pour into the greased pan and sprinkle with remaining ¼ c mini chocolate chips.
Bake for 20-25 minutes.
Let cool completely then frost with chocolate fudge frosting, if desired. (The cake is soft, so I recommend heating the frosting in the microwave until softened before spreading on the cake).
Notes
*Can also use a Jelly Roll pan (10.5 x 15.5") as long as the sides are at least 1" tall. Baking time will need to be increased by a couple minutes.
