Pumpkin Cheesecake Bars

This is one of my favorite fall recipes! And in case you doubting the truthfulness of this statement take the fact that this is second time in less than a week that I have made this!!

Ingredients:
2 cup flour
2/3 cup brown sugar
1 stick butter
11 ounces cream cheese
1 1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon allspice
3/4 cup pumpkin
2 eggs

To make:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Combine flour and brown sugar. Cut in the butter until coarse crumbs. (You can use a fork for this but it won't set up as well - I recommend using a pastry cutter).
Reserve 1 1/2 cup and set aside.
Press the remaining amount into a pan.
Bake at 350 for 15 minutes.

In the meantime beat cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and allspice. Add in pumpkin and eggs.
Take the crust out of the oven and spread pumpkin mixture over the crust.
Sprinkle the set aside flour mixture over the top.
Bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes. Chill in fridge for several hours.

Enjoy!
