Assembly Directions:
Bars:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease or spray a jelly roll pan. Beat sugar, oil, pumpkin and eggs in large mixing bowl on medium speed for 1 minute, scraping occasionally. Stir in baking mix and cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice. Pour into pan and bake 20-25 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool. Frost as desired and cut into bars.


Frosting: Beat cream cheese, butter or margarine, milk and vanilla until creamy. Mix in powdered sugar until smooth.

Freezing and Cooking Directions:
These freeze very well. You can freeze them individually for a quick snack or freeze the whole pan to pull out for a great dessert.

Comments:
Nanci’s note: I made a pan with walnuts mixed into the batter and sprinkled on top. Bob and I LOVED them! The kids always opt for the “no nuts” version of everything.
