When summer rolls into fall, one of the only things we seem to crave is pumpkin! We cannot get enough of this autumn vegetable and it’s best friends: cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. Since pumpkin will be fully incorporated into our diets from now until Thanksgiving, we are showing you how to make Easy Pumpkin Cheesecake Bars with our Organic Vanilla Cake Mix.
These Pumpkin Cheesecake Bars are super simple to make and they are the perfect low-maintenance indulgent treat to bring to a party, or to the office, or to just munch on as a snack. We love these bars because they’re the perfect blend of spicy, creamy, and pumpkin-y. In short, they taste just like fall!
