Prep Oven & Pan: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch pan with parchment paper and lightly grease.
Make Blondie Batter: In a bowl, whisk melted butter and brown sugar. Add pumpkin, egg, and vanilla. Stir in flour, spices, baking soda, and salt until just combined.
Bake: Pour into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 22–26 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs. Cool completely.
Slice & Decorate: Slice blondies into rectangles (for mummy bodies). Melt white chocolate chips with optional coconut oil in the microwave in 20-second bursts until smooth.
Make Mummies: Use a spoon or piping bag to drizzle white chocolate “bandages” across each blondie. Press on candy eyes before the chocolate sets.
