CHOCOLATE SWIRLED PUMPKIN BARS

These Chocolate Swirled Pumpkin Bars are so delicious and absolutely perfect for fall. Soft spiced pumpkin bars with a velvety chocolate swirl, topped with mini chocolate chips! My whole family went crazy for these pumpkin bars and I’m very excited to share the recipe.

For this recipe, you’ll need a 15 x 10 x 2 baking pan, I used this one. It’s a handy size to have for bar making and holiday baking!

Start with a simple pumpkin batter, then swirl in the chocolate cream cheese mixture. Dot the top of the pumpkin batter with the chocolate mixture, then use a butter knife to swirl.
