Инструкции

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease an 8-Inch square baking pan.
  2. Prepare Cookie Base: Mix together flour, oats, nuts, brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla, and cinnamon. Press mixture evenly into prepared pan.
  3. Bake cookie base for 10 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
  4. Prepare Filling: Mix together pumpkin, eggs, half-and-half, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves. Pour over cookie base.
  5. Bake until set, 40 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool completely, 2 hours.
  6. Prepare Topping: Beat cream cheese at medium speed until creamy. Sift powdered sugar over cream cheese. Add vanilla; beat until smooth.
  7. Spread cream cheese mixture over filling. Cut into 12 bars. Decorate each bar with 2 pecan halves. Chill for 3 - 4 hours.
  8. Tip: Bake cookie base up to 3 weeks ahead and freeze until needed. Once filling is added, the base will begin to get soggy within a day. For the best flavor and texture, serve bars the same day you bake them.
