Delicious Pumpkin Toffee Bars

Pumpkin Toffee Bars

This recipe for Pumpkin Toffee Bars  rock your socks! It’s filled with creamy pumpkin filling to crunchy toffee. Seriously, do you need anything else?

Pumpkin season is in full swing and though I do love an occasional piece of pumpkin pie, nothing makes my tastes buds happier than something with toffee added to the recipe! I’ve made enough pumpkin chili and baked pumpkin donut holes , now I’m looking for something new!  

The moment a piece of this delectable bar touched my tongue, I knew it was love at first bite! The smells that will come from your oven while cooking this goodness will be magical!

This recipe will torture you while you are waiting for the bars to cool. Don’t follow my example by being inpatient and taking a bite before they cool and you burn your tongue! I will be making these in place of pumpkin pie every single time!

NOTES:

• Be sure to use pure pumpkin puree…not pumpkin pie mix. There is a difference
• If you don’t have any pumpkin pie spice on hand, cloves or nutmeg are a good substitute.
• Is there a substitute for evaporated milk? Yes! Find it here.
• Topping ideas:  Ice cream, caramel sauce, whipped cream or additional chopped nuts & toffee bits.

The minute the weather started to change our taste buds changed. There is nothing better than a bowl of soup in this kind of weather! Instead of going with my good old standby recipes, I decided to try something new, Pumpkin sausage soup!

What I love about making a dessert bread, is that it is so easy and quick to make. I have a tough crowd at my house and they tell me if it’s a keeper or not. This is a keeper!
