It’s fun when you cook something that brings back wonderful memories of great times and special friends. This is a recipe I used to make a lot when we lived in Alaska and my husband, Jasen and I were leading the young adult ministry there. It was always a favorite! It feeds a crowd and is quick and easy. 
- Ingredients:
- Bars
- 4 large eggs
- 2C sugar
- 1C vegetable oil
- 1 can (16oz) pumpkin puree
- 2C flour
- 2t baking powder
- 2t ground cinnamon
- 1t baking soda
- 1/2t salt
- 1/2t ground ginger
- 1/4t ground cloves
- Frosting:
- 1 package (8oz) cream cheese
- 1/2C softened butter
- 1t vanilla
- 2-3C powdered sugar
How to:
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease bottom of a 15″ jelly roll pan. Beat eggs, sugar, oil & pumpkin in a large bowl until smooth. Stir in all of the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Spread in pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until slightly golden and springy to the touch. Allow to cool completely
Beat frosting ingredients together and spread over cooled pumpkin bars.
**These bars freeze really well. Layer them with wax paper and wrap well**
The best meatballs EVER! I could make these with my eyes closed, and they never receive anything but rave reviews. Make them for dinner one night and then use the left overs for meatball sandwiches for lunch the next day!
