1cupsgranulated sugar
2eggs
1cup8 oz canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie mix)
2teaspoonspumpkin pie spice
Ganache Drizzle
4ounceschocolate
1/4cupheavy cream
Instructions
Start by placing the Oreos in a food processor.
Blend until crumbs are formed.
Melt the butter and pour into the Oreo crumbs. Mix well.
Take a lined baking sheet (I used foil) and pour and press the Oreo mixture into the bottom of the tray.
Bake at 325 degrees for 8 - 10 minutes. Remove from Oven.
Pumpkin Cream Cheese Layer
While the Oreos are in the oven, add the butter and sugar to the mixing bowl of your stand-up mixer,.
Using the paddle attachment, beat on low speed until combined.
Next beat in cream cheese until just blended.
Finish this layer by adding in the pumpkin puree. Mix until just combined.
Pour the mixture over the Oreo crust and spread evenly with a spatula.
Put back in the oven and bake for 45 minutes.
Chocolate Ganache Layer
Chop up your chocolate or use chips.
Heat the heavy cream and when it just begins to bubble, pour it over the chocolate.
Keep stir until the chocolate is fully absorbed in to the cream.
Final Step
Put the ganache in a squeeze bottle and drizzle all over the bars.
Put in the refrigerator for a couple of hours minimum (I like my bars cold but these could be served at room temperature if you make them right before serving).
