Project Description

Fall is upon us and the love of all things pumpkin have come to the fore front of our minds.  These bars are so scrumptious and moist.  It’s almost as good as the original pumpkin pie! These pumpkin bars won’t last long because they are irresistible.  The cream cheese frosting compliments the pumpkin cake and makes a perfect match!

With many holiday parties and family gatherings this one is always on the top of my “bring to a friend’s house” list.  This is baked in a jelly roll pan (a cookie sheet with deeper edges) so it makes a big pan of bars to feed a crowd.  It is the fall compliment to any meal or gathering.
