Holiday Premiere Goodies
On Sunday I served some of my favorite fall treats – so today I’m going to share with you one of my favorite childhood recipes.
Pumpkin Bars
4 eggs 2 c. sugar
1 c. vegetable oil 1 can (15 oz.) pumpkin (or your own)
Mix above ingredients in a large bowl – sift the following and add to above, stir.
2 c. flour ½ tsp. salt
2 tsp. baking powder 2 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. baking soda ½ tsp. ginger
½ tsp. nutmeg ½ tsp. cloves
Mix well and pour into greased and floured 12x18x1 inch pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes.
Frosting:
1 (6 oz.) pkg. cream cheese 4 c. powdered sugar
6 T. butter 1 tsp. milk
1 tsp. vanilla
Beat cheese, butter, vanilla and milk together until soft. Add powder sugar until correct consistency to spread.
They make a large batch, but they freeze well!
This recipe was one that my friend Helen used to make every fall with her own pumpkins. Just the smell of them baking brings back all those fond memories of stopping in at my friends Becky’s house after school and visiting with her mom, Helen. Helen has been gone for a lot of years already, but the warmth of her personality stays with me. Food is funny that way, isn’t it? Those tastes and smells are strong triggers for thinking of a loved one or unlocking memories.
