Easy Pumpkin Cheesecake Bars image

Incredibly easy and tasty. Neufchatel can be substituted for the cream cheese for a lower-fat but equally scrumptious alternative.

Time 1h

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup all-purpose flour
⅓ cup packed brown sugar
5 tablespoons butter, softened
½ cup finely chopped pecans
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
¾ cup white sugar
½ cup pumpkin puree
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease an 8-inch square baking dish.
  • Mix flour and brown sugar in a bowl. Cut butter into flour mixture until small crumbs form. Stir pecans into the crumbs. Set 3/4 cup of the mixture aside for topping the bars; press remainder of the mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  • Bake crust in preheated oven until lightly browned, about 15 minutes; remove from oven and set aside to cool slightly.
  • Beat cream cheese, white sugar, pumpkin puree, eggs, vanilla extract, allspice, and cinnamon together in a bowl until smooth; pour over the cooled crust. Sprinkle reserved topping over the cream cheese mixture.
  • Return dish to oven and continue baking until the topping browns, 30 to 35 minutes.
