Time 55m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 (18 ounce) package yellow cake mix
1/2 cup cold butter
1 egg
2 eggs
1 (29 ounce) can pumpkin (not pumpkin pie mix)
2/3 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1/2 teaspoon clove
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
1/4 cup cold butter
whipped cream (optional)
vanilla ice cream (optional) or egg nog ice cream (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • CRUST: Empty cake mix into a bowl. Cut in 1/2 cup butter until mixture forms moist even crumbs. RESERVE ONE CUP MIXTURE. Add the egg to the remaining mixture and stir until crumbled together.
  • Spoon into a 9" x 13" greased pan and press lightly to form an even layer. Bake for 10 minutes and remove, but leave the oven on.
  • FILLING: Beat two eggs until foamy. Beat in pumpkin, milk, spices and 1/4 cup of brown sugar. Pour on top of baked layer. (It should be liquidy but don't worry - it will bake up fine.).
  • TOPPING: Combine reserved crumb mixture with 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 cup brown sugar and 1/4 cup butter. Sprinkle to form an even layer of crumbs on top of the pumpkin batter.
  • Bake until custard is slightly set in the center, about 30-40 minutes. Let cool completely.
  • GARNISH with whipped cream or ice cream and serve!

These pumpkin squares are a great way to use up leftover pumpkin puree. They're also a great make-ahead dessert.

These pumpkin squares are a great make-ahead dessert. You can make them a day or two ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator.

I didn't have any cream cheese, so I used sour cream instead. The squares still turned out great.

I made these pumpkin squares in a 9x13 inch pan instead of an 8x8 inch pan. They turned out just as good, but they were a little thinner.

I made these pumpkin squares gluten-free by using gluten-free flour. They turned out just as good as the regular version.
