Pumpkin White Chocolate Chip Bars



Soft, chewy pumpkin spice bars with all the warm and yummy spices with tons of white chocolate chips and a touch of turmeric.
I saw cookies like these at the store the other day, I got them of course to try them out. They were okay.
They didn't have enough white chocolate, I added some to the tops. Nor did they have enough spice to them.
Maybe a hint of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and clove.
This batch I made sure to enough cinnamon and all the warm spices that remind of the holiday seasons.
They also have a touch of turmeric to give it a little more spice and give it some health benefits.
Also these bars have browned butter so they are automatically better.
