Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8x8-inch baking pan by greasing it with butter or lining it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of pumpkin puree, ½ cup of melted butter, and 1 cup of brown sugar until smooth. Add in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract while whisking.
  3. In another bowl, combine 1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, ¼ teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon of nutmeg. Whisk until evenly mixed.
  4. Gradually fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, using a spatula until just combined.
  5. Stir in 1 cup of white chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth out the top.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the edges pull away from the pan and a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.
  8. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely before cutting into squares.
