Pumpkin Bars with Cream Cheese Frosting
I have a confession to make…. my grandma has the BEST Pumpkin Bar Dessert recipe ever. Like our son has devoured them since he could walk. These pumpkin bars with cream cheese frosting are easy and perfect to bring to a fall party, potluck or just a treat to have around the house.
For these
This multi-purpose jelly roll pan is designed to handle various recipes, from classic jelly rolls to delectable cookies, savory roasted vegetables, sheet cakes and even pizza
- A 10×15 jelly roll pan
- A spatula (a weird one like this works best)
- My mixer (I am partial to this one when doing quick treats like this)
- A big bowl to dump in (I LOVE these!)
And, see below for the very best pumpkin bars you’ll ever eat. 😀 For real.
One more thing… as I was baking these pumpkin bars I snapped this shot of my little cutie… she’s feisty, but I couldn’t love her one ounce more than I do. 😀

I just wanted to make sure before I made these,that I noticed when you said to put the mix in the pan that you didn’t say anything about greasing the pan are spraying it or anything, so I just wanted to make sure that that was correct?

Just curious on the butter measurement.
Is it really 1.4 pounds of butter? Or is it 1/4 pound of butter?
The recipe is super easy and quick so I really love that.
