PUMPKIN BARS



Pumpkin Bars image

In between bars and a crowd-friendly sheet cake is this autumnal dessert. Moist and tender pumpkin spice cake is lavished with cream cheese frosting for bars that are simply irresistible.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

Time 3h15m

Yield Makes 12 bars with 1 1/2 cups frosting

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pan
1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
Pinch ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup pure pumpkin puree (from a 15-ounce can)
1/2 cup milk, room temperature
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 large eggs, room temperature
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, cut into pieces, room temperature
Pinch coarse salt
1 cup confectioners' sugar, sifted

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Brush bottom and sides of an 8-by-12-inch cake pan with butter. Line bottom with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on 2 sides. Brush parchment with butter.
  • Whisk together flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, cloves, salt, baking powder, and baking soda; set aside. In a separate bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree and milk; set aside
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat sugar and butter together until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add eggs, and beat until combined. On low speed add flour mixture in three batches, alternating with two additions of pumpkin mixture, and beating until just combined after each.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan, smooth top with spatula. Bake until a cake tester inserted into the middle comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Make Frosting: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat cream cheese, 1/4 cup butter, and pinch of salt until light and creamy, 2 minutes. Reduce mixer speed to low. Gradually add confectioners' sugar, beating until incorporated.
  • Assemble: Unmold cake. Using an offset spatula, spread icing over top of cake. Cut into 12 bars.

Tips:

  • Use fresh or canned pumpkin: Fresh pumpkin will give your bars a more intense pumpkin flavor, but canned pumpkin is a convenient option that works just as well.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your bars tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the bars until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the bars are cooked through.
  • Let the bars cool completely before frosting them: This will help the frosting to set properly.
  • Store the bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days: You can also freeze the bars for up to 2 months.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin raisin bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They're moist, flavorful, and have the perfect amount of sweetness. Whether you're making them for a special occasion or just because you're craving something sweet, these bars are sure to be a hit.
