Aug. 18, 2006 - Pumpkin Squares - a fall favorite

"Pumpkin Squares" is the official name of this recipe, but they are so good I prefer to cut them into large pieces of cake! Nothing says fall like one of these squares paired with a strong cup of coffee...yum! I justify eating it for breakfast because, after all it does contain fruit.

Pumpkin Squares

2 cups sugar

1 cup oil

2 cups pumpkin (small can)

4 eggs

2 cups flour

2 t. baking powder

1 t. baking soda

1 t. salt

2 t. cinnamon

1 t. nutmeg

Mix first four ingredients. Add dry ingredients. Pour into a 9x13 greased pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes at 375.

Icing

1 3/4 cups powdered sugar

2 T. milk

3/4 stick of margarine (room temp)

3 oz. cream cheese

1 t. vanilla

Blend until smooth and spread over cooled cake.

Brew yourself a cup of tea or a mug of your favorite joe, sit back and enjoy!
