Pumpkin White Chocolate Chunk and Candied Ginger Blondies

These pumpkin blondies might be one of the best pumpkin goodies I have ever had! Not even kidding. The trick is, they need to be chilled. They become kind of chewy and totally fabulous with the little bits of white chocolate and candied ginger throughout.

Guess what? No mixer needed, just grab your favorite bowl and you are good to go. Quick easy, and minimal clean up 🙂

Just got back from BlogHer Food in San Francisco yesterday. I was nuts and stayed up way too late downloading and editing all my pics from the trip. See what our weekend was like at the BlogHer Food Conference and all of my pics HERE.

You’ll melt your butter until nice and hot then add some white chips to melt.

Add sugar, flour….

….baking powder and salt.

…whisk 2 eggs with a little sour cream then add to the bowl!

Mmmm, the pumpkin!

Add your pumpkin 🙂

…don’t forget more white chips!

……and a little cinnamon and grated nutmeg!

Pour into a nice 8×8 inch baking pan lined with foil for easy removal 🙂

Almost ready to bake!

The candied/crystalized ginger makes the recipe, do find some!

Bake 350 degrees F. for 28-35 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean from center.

Chill, drizzle and mmmmmm!
