PUMPKIN DESSERT SQUARES WITH SHORTBREAD CRUST



Pumpkin Dessert Squares With Shortbread Crust image

This dessert has extreme pumpkin flavor, with a crust that is so buttery, flakey and light, if you prefer a less sweeter filling just add in 3/4 cup sugar --- the crust must be mixed on the food processor or it will not have the same texture.

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!
