Pumpkin Bars

I make these at home and they are Sara’s favorite. Jack and Jon also love them but I have to leave the nuts out because they tell me that I poisoned them if I add nuts!

2 cups sugar
4 eggs
1 can of pumpkin
1 cup salad oil
1 cup chopped nuts (optional)
2 cups flour
1 tsp. soda
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. vanilla

Mix all the ingredients together. Beat well. Pour into a greased and floured jelly roll pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes

Cream Cheese Frosting

1 stick butter (or margarine) softened
3 oz. cream cheese (softened)
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. milk
2 cups powdered sugar

Cream butter and cream cheese together. Add powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk. Beat well. Spread on cooled bars.
