Gooey Pumpkin Bars

I used to not be a fan of pumpkin. Not savory or sweet pumpkin recipes. But, as predicted, my tastes changed and I like pumpkin desserts now. I can still say I’m not a huge fan of savory pumpkin dishes.

Pumpkin is very similar in taste to sweet potatoes. And, I grew up eating and loving sweet potatoes. After all, I live the Sweet Potato Capital of the world!!

Gooey Pumpkin Bars with Praline Topping Tips

Let this cool before slicing. It really needs to set or this dessert will crumble.

I like to take bars instead of pie to potlucks because they go further.

Plus, I like the filling to crust ratio for these bars. It has a less filling and more crust ratio.

Finally, the praline topping is everything! So good!

Please keep in mind that nutritional information is a rough estimate and can vary based on products used.

    Paula,
    I was googling and found your website looking for pumpkin recipes. This looks soooo good, but I’m a tad bit confused. We only use 1 box of cake mix, right? I’m wanting to make this for our home group Sunday. Thanks, I am going to be a regular!

    Reply
    • Paula says

      09.24.13 at 6:21 pm

      Yes, 1 box, you take out 1/2 c for the filling and 1/2 c for the topping. It should not be listed twice, I’m about to correct that, thanks for pointing that mistake out.
