Pumpkin Sprinkle Blondies

Teresa Ambra

Pumpkin Sprinkle Blondies are heavenly. For those of you who are pumpkin lovers, I have a wonderful recipe for you today. These lovely blondies start with a Pillsbury Perfectly Pumpkin Cookie Mix, add rainbow jimmie sprinkles, white chocolate chips and then cover the batter with more sprinkles before baking.

What a delight. These cookies have crunch, lovely flavor, gooey texture and a nice spicy flavor from the cookie mix. One of the nice things about Pumpkin Sprinkle Blondies is that they have only six ingredients. That means they are super E-A-S-Y to make!

We were in Asheville, North Carolina, last week and we wanted to give some cookies to some folks we were meeting with at a local church there. I wanted to make something tasty, but it needed to be a dessert that didn’t require a lot of ingredients because we were away from home and I didn’t have access to lots of pantry goods.

I decided to make my Cake Batter Blondies recipe because it’s easy and requires only a few ingredients. Then I thought to myself, fall is the time for pumpkin, and I saw pumpkin cake and cookie mixes at the store a few weeks ago. So we hunted around in grocery stores in Black Mountain and found a Pumpkin Cookie Mix and decided to use that as the base for the recipe.

Pumpkin Sprinkle Blondies turned out so wonderfully and the folks who got them along with the Cake Batter Blondies really enjoyed them, too. I love pumpkin desserts and anything on the gooey side is right up my alley. If you like gooey desserts with pumpkin flavor, white chocolate chips and sprinkles tossed in for good measure, then you need to give Pumpkin Sprinkle Blondies a try. Every mouthful is delectable.

When I initially made these blondies in October 2014, I was in North Carolina and not using my own oven. The blondies cooked too fast and I felt like I overcooked them so you weren’t able to see the gooeyness of these brownies. One of the things I determined was that these blondies work much better with a smaller batch. A large 9×13″ pan has to cook too long so the white chocolate chips melt and lose their shape.

So when I made them in late September (2016) for friends, I chose to make a single batch and watched my oven carefully so the blondies didn’t overbake. I was very thrilled with the results. As a result, I changed the recipe for an 8×12″ glass baking dish or a 9×9″ baking dish rather than using a 9×13″ dish. These blondies are perfect. I hope you give them a try.

Here’s what I did.

I used these ingredients to make Pumpkin Sprinkle Blondies. While I used a cookie mix, a pumpkin cake mix will also work.

Empty the cookie mix into a bowl. Add the sprinkles.

Equipment

  • 1 8x12" glass baking dish
  • 1 large mixing bowl
  • 1 wooden spoon
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons
  • 1 spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 1 box Pillsbury Perfectly Pumpkin cookie mix (pumpkin cake mix also works well)
  • 1/4 cup canola oil or use avocado oil or coconut oil
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • 1/3-1/2 cup 2% milk or cream
  • 1/4 cup rainbow sprinkles
  • 6 oz. bag white chocolate chips about half bag
  • 1 tbsp. rainbow sprinkles

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Combine the cookie mix and 1/4 cup sprinkles in a large bowl.
  • Add oil and egg and stir to combine.
  • Stir in the milk and white chocolate chips until the batter is combined.
  • Place batter in a greased 9x9” or 8x12" glass baking dish.
  • Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon rainbow sprinkles.
  • Bake for 25-35 minutes or just until the edges turn golden and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
  • Allow bars to cool completely.
  • Cut into bars.

Notes

NOTE: This recipe really does not do very well doubling the ingredients and placing in a 9x13" glass baking dish. The white chocolate chips overcook and don't hold their shape and the recipe dries out too much losing the gooeyness the recipe is supposed to have.
 
NOTE: You may want to refrigerate these bars before cutting.
 
NOTE: I have used both pumpkin cake mix and pumpkin cookie mix for this recipe.

    Hi. Your dessert looks great! I have a few questions.
    First, your recipe and directions say you used the cookie mix, but the cake mix is pictured in the ingredients photo. Can you clarify which you used? I have the cake mix, and I am looking for a recipe that uses it.
    Second, what size pan did you use? You say 9X19 (which I am unfamilar with) or 8X12 (which is a much smaller size). Do you mean 9×13? But you say not to double it and use a 9×13 because it won’t come out right. So I am confused.
    Thanks for your help!

      Hi, Jennifer. So sorry for the typo. I use either a 9×9″ square dish or an 8×12″ baking dish. I used pumpkin cake mix for this recipe. But both cake mix and cookie mix will work for this recipe. I’ve made the changes on the recipe. Thanks so much for catching this error. Hope you enjoy it!
