PUMPKIN DESSERT SQUARES



Pumpkin Dessert Squares image

Every year we make a trip to the US to shop and one of my favourite places to shop is the Williams-Sonoma store. This year they were serving samples of this made with their own Pecan Pumpkin Butter and giving away the recipe. Since I can't buy the pumpkin butter here I adapted the recipe to use a butter recipe already on Zaar. Absolutely delicious!

Categories     Dessert

Time 55m

Yield 32 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (18 ounce) box yellow cake mix
1/2 cup butter, melted
3 large eggs
1 1/4 cups pumpkin butter (I used Spicy Pumpkin Butter, takes 10 minutes to make)
1/8 cup milk
1/2 cup pecans, toasted and chopped
1 tablespoon flour
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup butter, softened

Steps:

  • Measure out one cup of the cake mix and set aside for the topping.
  • Mix remaining cake mix with 1/2 cup melted butter, then mix in 1 egg.
  • Press lightly and evenly into a lightly greased 9 X 13 baking pan.
  • Mix the pumpkin butter with 2 eggs and the milk.
  • Spread pumpkin butter over the cake base evenly.
  • Sprinkle chopped pecans over the pumpkin.
  • Mix the 1 cup reserved cake mix with the flour, sugar and cinnamon.
  • Add softened butter and mix until crumbly.
  • Sprinkle crumbs over the top of the cake.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes, until golden.
  • Note: If you're making your own pumpkin butter let it cool before using in this recipe.
  • Prep and cook times do not include the time to make the pumpkin butter.

Tips:

  • Fresh pumpkin puree is best: If you have the time, make your own pumpkin puree by roasting a pumpkin in the oven until soft and then pureeing it in a blender or food processor. This will give your squares the best flavor.
  • Use a good quality honey: The honey you use will have a big impact on the flavor of your squares. Look for a honey that is dark and flavorful, such as buckwheat honey or manuka honey.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your squares tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the squares until they are just set: Overbaking will make your squares dry. Bake them until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the squares cool completely before frosting them: This will help the frosting to set properly.
  • Store the squares in the refrigerator: The squares will keep for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.

Conclusion:

These honey pumpkin dessert squares are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for fall. They are made with fresh pumpkin puree, honey, and spices, and they are topped with a creamy cream cheese frosting. These squares are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
