How To Make perfect pumpkin bars
-
1Mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon and set aside.
-
2Beat sugar, pumpkin, oil, and eggs until well incorporated.
-
3Gradually add dry ingredients into pumpkin mixture until fully incorporated.
-
4Pour mixture into an ungreased 15x10x1 pan and bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes. Let cool completely before frosting.
-
5For the cream cheese frosting: Beat together butter, cream cheese, vanilla until incorporated. Gradually add powdered sugar, and taste as you go. I like my frosting a little less sweet so I end up using less than the full amount of powdered sugar. Once frosted, I garnish with cinnamon on top. Enjoy! (I died the frosting orange in the picture for Halloween and topped with fresh ground cinnamon)
