Ingredients

  • 1 (15.25oz) box of yellow cake mix
  • 1 cup melted butter divided
  • 4 eggs
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 15 ounces pumpkin puree
  • 2 tsp Pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 tsp Vanilla
  • 2 cups powdered sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 13x9 inch baking dish with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, fold together yellow cake mix, ½ cup melted butter, and 1 egg, until a dough forms.
  • Press the dough mixture into the bottom of the lined baking dish.
  • In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla, until smooth. Add pumpkin puree, ½ cup melted butter, 3 eggs, and mix well to combine. Mix in powdered sugar, until combined.
  • Pour the pumpkin mixture over the dough. Bake for 45 minutes, the center will still be slightly jiggly when the bars are done baking.
  • Allow the bars to cool completely and chill for 1 hour. Slice and enjoy.

Notes

  • To Store: Allow bars to cool completely and cut into squares or rectangles. Place in an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 5 days.
  • To Freeze: Allow to cool completely. Wrap each bar individually in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe bag or container in the freezer for up to 2 months. Thaw frozen bars overnight in the refrigerator or at room temperature for a few hours before eating.
