Pumpkin Pumpkin Bars
I made pumpkin bars (Note: there was a mistake in the nutritional info that has since been updated) the other day. Hubby and I absolutely loved them so I thought I’d whip up a batch for the coworkers to enjoy.
I thought it would be fun to use a pumpkin cookie cutter for the bars. I added orange food coloring to the frosting and piped it through a ziploc bag with a whole cut out of one of the corners. Everyone loved them!
For this batch, since I wasn’t going to be eating any of them, I used 1/3 less fat cream cheese for the frosting. It definitely lowers the calories and fat of the frosting some.

Mmmmmm! I love chickpeas. Thanks for sharing!
mmm – Thanks for sharing this! I’m always looking for ways to use chickpeas!
This looks so tasty! I make something similar to this, but it has spinach instead of parsley. Chickpeas are awesome!
I’m not a chickpea fan at all, but this makes them look good 🙂
