Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookie Bars

"I was restless and bored one night and couldn't sleep so I decided to bake something. After raiding the kitchen this is what I threw together. I love that it has a mild sweetness and isn't over powering. So, if you prefer really sweet things I suggest you add more sugar. I also love how light these are."

  1. These bars have a lovely flavor. They are quite cakey and moist and bursting with chocolately and pumpkiny goodness. Mine took more like 30-35 minutes for the first bake so that they were not undone in the middle. I think next time I might just bake them a bit longer and skip the second bake, then cut 'em and dust 'em,
