These Pumpkin Spice Bars are probably in my top 5 favorite things about Fall and the upcoming Holidays! It takes much restraint not to eat half a pan yourself! Keep leftovers in the refrigerator. (They just might be even better right out the fridge!!!)
These bars are really easy to make for a crowd gathering. My kids always get VERY excited when they see the sheet pan of pumpkin batter going into the oven. We always have a fight over who gets to lick the beaters of the cream cheese frosting!
ENJOY!

Fall is the time for pumpkin! I usually make pumpkin bread with cream cheese filling, but this sounds so much easier. I do roast my own pumpkin puree from fresh pumpkin so we can roast pumpkin seeds also.
