Ingredients - Shortbread Crust | |
1 1/2 cups ROGERS FOODS ALL PURPOSE FLOUR | |
1/4 cup granulated sugar | |
1/2 cup cold butter, cubed | |
... | |
Filling | |
29 oz can pumpkin puree (NOT pumpkin pie filling) | |
4 large eggs | |
1 tsp salt | |
2 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice | |
2 cups granulated sugar | |
2 (12 oz each) cans evaporated milk |
1. | Preheat oven to 425 F degrees. Line a 9x13 |
2. | In a small mixing bowl, combine flour and 1/4 cup sugar. Add cubes of butter and cut into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter or two forks. This can also be done in a food processor by pulsing until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs. |
3. | Press crust into the prepared baking dish in an even layer and set aside. To a large mixing bowl, add pumpkin, eggs, salt, pumpkin pie spice, and 2 cups of sugar. Whisk or beat together. Add evaporated milk and stir until well combined. |
4. | Pour mixture over crust in prepared pan and bake at 425 F degrees for 15 minutes. Leave the pan in the oven and reduce oven temperature to 350 and continue baking another 50-55 minutes, until filling is set. |
5. | Remove pan from oven and cool completely on a wire rack. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours before cutting into bars. I usually make my bars the night before, so they're refrigerated overnight. |
6. | Slice into squares and serve with whipped cream and a light dusting of cinnamon if desired. |
