Pam's Pumpkin Bars


My friend, Pam, has some great recipes.  She helps her friends with receptions and this is one that she gave me for my son and daughter-in-laws wedding reception. My daughter-in-law's favorite dessert is Pumpkin Pie but that is too messy to serve so this fit the bill perfectly.

Pam’s Pumpkin Bars

1 Yellow Cake Mix (Reserve 1 cup)
½ cup butter, melted
1 egg

-Mix above ingredients (except reserved 1 cup cake mix), pat into bottom of a 9”x13” pan.

1 large can pumpkin
3 eggs
¼ tsp salt
2/3 c evaporated milk
1 cup sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp ginger
½ tsp nutmeg
¼ tsp cloves

-Mix all ingredients and pour over cake mixture in pan

1 cup reserved cake mix
¼ cup flour
¼ cup sugar
¼ cup softened butter

-Mix until crumbly.  Sprinkle over pumpkin mixture.  Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour or until knife inserted into middle comes out clean.  Serve with whipped cream.
