Description

This makes enough to feed a crowd and I make half the pan with chocolate chips and the other half with cream cheese frosting.

Ingredients

  • 6 whole Eggs (large)
  • 1-½ cup Canola Oil
  • 3 cups Sugar
  • 1-½ teaspoon Vanilla
  • 1 can (29 Oz.) Pumpkin
  • 3-¼ cups Flour
  • 1-½ teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1 Tablespoon Cinnamon
  • 1-½ teaspoon Salt
  • 1 cup Chocolate Chips, To Sprinkle Over Half Of The Pan
  • _____
  • CREAM CHEESE FROSTING INGREDIENTS:
  • 8 ounces, weight Cream Cheese (I Use Light)
  • 8 Tablespoons Butter, Softened
  • 1 cup Powdered Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla

Preparation

Mix together eggs, oil, sugar, vanilla, and pumpkin. Fold in the dry ingredients and pour into a jelly roll pan (13 x 18 pan). Sprinkle half the pan with 1 cup of chocolate chips.

Bake at 350F for 30 to 40 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Do not over-bake. Cool and frost the non-chocolate chips side of the bars with cream cheese frosting .

To make the frosting, blend together cream cheese and butter until smooth. Beat in powdered sugar and vanilla.

Easy and so good! I made them for my husband to take to a lunch at work, and they were a big hit!

I made these yesterday for a jewelry party I was hosting and they were a huge hit! I also did not have the correct pan size and used a 9×13 and just watched my baking time. Thanks for sharing this one!

This is so good. I don’t have a jelly roll pans so I just used a 9×13 cake pan. It had to cook a little longer than 40 min. And I put chocolate chips and the cream cheese icing on the whole thing!! My husband doesn’t eat pumkin pie, but he ate this!

I love all things pumpkin and these are very high on the list! This recipe was SO easy to make! We made a pan to take to a party and everyone really enjoyed them. I love that it basically makes two recipes in one. My husband prefers the chocolate chip and I prefer the cream cheese. YUM YUM YUM!
