These Frosted Pumpkin Bars are a perfect dessert this fall! Moist pumpkin bars with cream cheese frosting and fun fall sprinkles!
Last year on Black Friday, we purchased season tickets for our family to a local amusement park here in Lancaster. Not only did it give us fun all summer with the rides and the water park, they also offer a fun Halloween Trick-or-Treat event for the weekends in October. It's so fun!
We met up with friends of ours and family there last weekend. The boys were all dressed up in their costumes and they had a great time. The weather was perfect, too! Of course they insisted on going on the monorail ride. We warned them the line would be long, since it's a popular ride, but it's really slow moving.
We had no idea.
I went on the monorail once in the beginning of the summer and, needless to say, that was my last! I'm not a real big fan of heights and the swaying back and forth as the wind hit the ride... definitely not for me. I thought the wait during the summer was long.
Try waiting over an hour! All the while attempting to occupy a one-year-old who just wants to stretch his legs and crawl around. Yeah, I tried that. In about 3 seconds he had various sized pieces of mulch and leaves in his mouth. That kid is FAST!
Unfortunately because the wait for the ONE ride was so long, we needed to leave as soon as they were done - those boys were not happy! Luckily, this past weekend I was able to take them again and leave Paul at home with Reuben. It was much chillier this weekend, but they still had loads of fun. These boys may drive me nuts some days, but they truly are my best friends!
These Frosted Pumpkin Bars are a great treat to have on hand after a day of fall fun with your family. They remind me of a pumpkin version of moist, fudgy brownies. I went the shortcut route and topped them with my favorite cream cheese frosting from the store, but you could certainly make your own instead!
