Tips for Making Pumpkin Cheese Praline Bars:
- Use a good quality pumpkin puree. Fresh or canned pumpkin puree will work, but make sure it is smooth and not watery.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the bars tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Be patient when chilling the bars. They need to be chilled for at least 2 hours before cutting, so plan ahead.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the pecans by hand. Just be sure to chop them finely.
- You can use any type of chocolate chips you like for the praline topping. Semi-sweet, milk chocolate, or dark chocolate all work well.
Conclusion:
Pumpkin Cheese Praline Bars are a delicious and festive dessert perfect for fall gatherings. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a creamy pumpkin cheesecake filling, a crunchy praline topping, and a flaky crust, these bars are sure to be a hit! These bars are also a great way to use up leftover pumpkin puree.
