Knaughty Farms Pumpkin Bars'


We are a big fan of fall on our farm.  It means an amazing time of year, a time when we get to harvest our months of hard work, the cool mornings and lots of baking are also definitely an added bonus. 

If you like moist & delicious pumpkin bars' this recipe is for you.  It has a cream cheese frosting with the pumpkin cake, the two together become an amazing pair.  I double this recipe most of the time when I make it to fit a full sheet pan, usually our gathering this time of year are nothing short of small though.  So here it is, let me know what you think of it!
