Ingredients

  • 1 17.5 oz pkg chocolate chip cookie mix
  • 3/4 cup semi sweet chocolate chips divided
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 3/4 cup pumpkin puree

Instructions

  • Spray a non stick brownie pan liberally with non stick cooking spray. Set aside.
  • To a large mixing bowl add the cookie mix, 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips, flour, and spice to a large mixing bowl. Stir to evenly combine the ingredients.

  • Add the puree to the mixing bowl, and stir again until the dough comes together and is evenly combined. It will be thick, but smooth.

  • Transfer the dough to the prepared pan and press it out in an even layer. Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips evenly out overtop of the dough.
  • Bake at 350° for 25-27 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Carefully remove the hot pan from the oven and let it rest and cool for 15 minutes.
  • Cut into squares, serve, and enjoy!

Notes

  • Because this dough doesn't use typical wet ingredients, it is going to be very thick. I recommend just mixing it together with clean hands rather than trying to stir it with a spoon or spatula.
  • Wipe the knife off with a paper towel in between making cuts to prevent it from tearing.
  • These pair perfectly with a cup of milk for dessert, or even with a hot cup of coffee for a sweet treat in the morning.
