PUMPKIN DESSERT SQUARES
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!

Steps:
- Measure out one cup of the cake mix and set aside for the topping.

- Mix the pumpkin butter with 2 eggs and the milk.

- Add softened butter and mix until crumbly.

- 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.
