Pumpkin Bars
2 cups all-purpose flour 1 tsp baking soda 2 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp salt 2 tsp cinnamon 1/2 tsp powdered ginger 1/2 tsp ground cloves 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg 4 eggs 1 cup vegetable oil 2 cups sugar 1 15-oz can solid packed pumpkin (or cooked, mashed pumpkin) Pecan nuts
1. Preheat oven to 350. Sift together the dry ingredients (except for the sugar) and set aside.
2. In another bowl, mix together the eggs, oil, sugar, and pumpkin and beat well. Gradually add the dry stuff and blend well.
3. Pour the batter into an ungreased jelly roll pan (17x12x1). Bake for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. If you use a 9x13 pan, bake for 25-30 minutes.
4. Cool the cake in the pan on a wire rack. Frost with cream cheese frosting, top with pecan nuts and cut into squares.
CREAM CHEESE FROSTING:
8 oz (1 package) cream cheese, softened at room temp 1 stick butter, softened at room temp 1 tsp vanilla extract 1 Tbsp milk 4 cups powdered sugar
Mix together the cream cheese, butter, vanilla, and milk until light and fluffy. Add the powdered sugar a cup at a time. Add additional milk if the frosting seems too dry.
