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**
