Ingredients

Servings

Pumpkin Bars

  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 (15 ounce can) pumpkin puree
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Frosting

  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a 13x18 baking sheet.
  2. In large bowl, use a hand mixer to beat together sugar, butter and oil, about 1-2 minutes. Add in eggs, vanilla, and pumpkin, then mix to combine.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix together the baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ground ginger, and flour until well combined.
  4. Add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture a little at a time and mix. Once all is added in, mix for 30 seconds more to ensure all is mixed well.
  5. Pour mixture on to the greased baking sheet.
  6. Bake in the 350 degree oven for about 25-30 minutes, until slightly golden. Remove from oven.
  7. Let cool completely and then frost. Give a light dusting of the pumpkin pie spice on top.

Frosting

  1. Using a hand or stand mixer, mix the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla together for 1 minute.
  2. Add in the heavy cream and whip on high for 2 more minutes until the frosting has become more fluffy.

Notes

  • Can use 2 1/2 teaspoons of Pumpkin Pie Spice instead of the listed spices.
