I made this and made one and half size, a little less than doubling. Oh my it was so good and so easy to make. I had everything on hand. Love it! Thanks for sharing this recipe.

Have the same recipe from my Mom. Mom's recipe is about 75 years old. And only calls for baking 15 minutes. It says it might look like it is not done but will finish outside the oven. Baking it 25 minutes would make it more cake like. Try 15 minutes.

The best pumpkin bars I have ever tried! I am a bit of a baking snob. Thank you for sharing this! I double the spice & add clove. I have made this before at 25 minutes. I will try like Sharon suggested today and cook for 15 minutes. Thank you Sharon! I think they will be beautiful either way. I'm so excited to try these again. Our local store has a bakery selling pumpkin bars for $1 a piece. They are just average and artificial cream cheese frosting. So Grandma Doris Pumpkin bars here I come! Nothing like old fashioned homemade cookin!

Debra (North Dakota) says:

I put in 1 tsp of cinnamon & half a tsp of pumpkin pie spice. If that is too much spice for you, then I only use 1/4 tsp of pumpkin pie spice.
