PUMPKIN BARS image

If you are planning a Halloween Party or will be going to friends for fall activities then this recipe will work well for you. It makes 48 bars. They're rich so a little goes a long way. This is a favorite around here and has been since the boys were young. Now they're older and out of the house so I guess I'll have to eat all...

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 boxed pound cake mix
3 large eggs
2 tablespoon melted butter
4 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice, divided (this is the name of a spice found in the spice aisle)
8 oz. cream cheese room temperature
14 oz. sweetened condensed milk
2 cup canned pumpkin (not pie filling)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans or toffee bits

Store in fridge when not using.
  • 3. NOTE: It would be good with 1/2 cup chocolate chips sprinkled in with the 1 cup chopped nuts. I believe chocolate slows down the age processing. I mean, there's no proof of this but why take chances? {:

Not a fan. The texture was too dense and the flavor was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, but I think I'll try a different one next time.
