Excellent pumpkin bars, at least that's what my DH told me! It was my turn to bring treats to our adult Sunday school class before church. The pan was empty before I had a chance for even a little taste! So, I'll make them again soon, and be sure to save one for myself. I used a buttercream frosting. Thanks!

Simple to make and very tasty. We had to make some kind of bars fast this morning for an estate. So we picked these we only have 2 pieces left. And hope to keep them until Monday so DH can take them to work. I think we baked them for 30 to 35 minutes.
