Tips:

  • Use fresh pumpkin puree. Fresh pumpkin puree has a much better flavor than canned pumpkin puree. If you don't have fresh pumpkin, you can use canned pumpkin puree, but be sure to drain it well.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the pumpkin squares tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the pumpkin squares until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the pumpkin squares are cooked through.
  • Let the pumpkin squares cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting to set properly.
  • Store the pumpkin squares in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also store them in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin squares are a delicious and easy-to-make fall dessert. They are perfect for potlucks, bake sales, or just a sweet treat at home. With a few simple ingredients, you can make a batch of pumpkin squares that will disappear quickly!
