Pumpkin Gooey Bars Recipes

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients of the cake as directed by the ingredient list (not the cake box).
• Mix well with an electric mixer.
• Pat the mixture into the bottom of a lightly greased 13 x 9 inch baking pan.
• In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and pumpkin until smooth.
• Add the eggs, vanilla, and butter and beat together.
• Stir in the powdered sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and mix well.
• Spread the pumpkin mixture over the cake batter and bake at 350 for about 50-60 minutes or until baked. **Inside should be gooey, but not runny**.
• Let cool on wire rack and cut into squares.
• Refridgerate left overs.

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 13-by-9-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray. Combine the cake mix, eggs and vanilla in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Add the butter and mix just until combined. Spread the mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
• For the filling: Beat the cream cheese in a clean mixer bowl with the paddle until light and smooth, scraping the sides occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the eggs, pumpkin pie spice and vanilla and beat until smooth. Add the pumpkin and butter and beat until smooth. Add the confectioners' sugar and beat on low speed to incorporate, and then beat on medium until light and smooth, about 1 minute. Pour over the cake layer and smooth the top with a spatula.
• Bake until the edges are puffed and golden brown and the center is just set, about 40 minutes. Let cool. Cut into squares and serve topped with whipped cream.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9-x-13-inch baking pan with parchment paper and butter the paper.
• Spread pecans out on a rimmed baking sheet; toast until fragrant and lightly colored, 7 to 10 minutes. Cool and coarsely chop.
• Make the pumpkin batter: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 12 tablespoons/170 grams butter. Cook until the foam completely subsides and butter turns a deep nut brown, about 5 minutes. Pour browned butter into the bowl of an electric mixer and let cool, about 10 minutes.
• Beat the pumpkin purée, egg, brown sugar and bourbon into the cooled browned butter. Scrape down the bowl and beat in baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and salt.
• Using a wooden spoon, mix in flour, then toasted pecans. Set aside.
• Make the chocolate batter: In a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, melt together 8 tablespoons/113 grams butter and the bittersweet chocolate, stirring with a heatproof spatula until smooth. Whisk in cocoa powder and sugar. Whisk in the eggs one at a time, then whisk in vanilla and salt. Using a spatula, fold in flour.
• Dollop pumpkin and chocolate batter into the prepared pan, alternating the dollops. Drag the tip of a knife in a zigzag pattern all over the pan to swirl the batters together.
• Bake until firm to the touch, 25 to 35 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
