I love fall! I love everything about this beautiful time of year. The colors, smells, the weather change, the decorations, fresh produce (especially living in the country), and of course fall cooking and baking! I love searching for fall recipes with lots of spices, pumpkin, apples,....the list could go on forever!
Though I'm not one for pumpkin pie itself, I do love other things with pumpkin. So I made these bars. They weren't my most favorite 'cause as I said, pumpkin pie isn't my favorite. But those who do like pumpkin pie and tried them said they were "to die for". So if you're a lover of pumpkin pie, these may be just what you'd love. =)
