Steps:
- Heat oven to 350°F.

PUMPKIN APPLESAUCE SQUARES.
This recipe was in a box of loose recipes I'd cut out of magazines and newspapers. I'm posting it here so it won't get lost. UPDATE: I made these and they are delicious. I wasn't sure how pumpkin and applesauce would taste together. The predominate flavor to me was the molasses. I used all white flour and butter. The texture is more like a cake than a square. I did cream the butter, sugar, molasses, brown sugar, applesauce, eggs and pumpkin before adding the dry ingredients.

Tips for Making Applesauce Squares
- Use a good quality applesauce. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your squares.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the squares tough.
- Bake the squares until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry.
- Let the squares cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to hold their shape.
- For a fun twist, try adding a streusel topping to the squares before baking.
