Pumpkin Layer Bars

So with all the "fall" themed baking posts I've seen lately, I decided to try a spicy, pumpkiny dessert. I got the original recipe from shakentogether.blogspot.com. However, it wasn't as sweet as I liked, so you know what happened... Here is my version!
Pumpkin Layer Bars
Go on and preheat your oven child, 350 degrees!
The Bottom Layer stuff:
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
1 box yellow cake mix, reserve 1 c. of cake mix for later
2 eggs
- Mix together and spread into bottom of 9X13 prepared baking dish.
- By the way, prepared means greased, just in case ya didn't know!
The Middle Layer stuff:
2 eggs
2/3 c. evaporated milk
large can (30 oz) pumpkin pie mix (couldn't find anything that said pumpkin pie mix so just used the canned pumpkin)
3/4 c. sugar
- Mix together and pour over bottom layer
- By the way, this is layer that needed some sweetness, so oh yes I did!!
The Top Layer stuff:
1 c. reserved cake mix
1/4 c. brown sugar (packed)
1 tsp cinnamon
3 T. butter
-Cut the butter into the dry ingredients until crumbly. Sprinkle over the pumpkin layer.
Now, Bake it baby! Bake at 350 degrees for 40-43 minutes, or until cake is firm and toothpick inserted comes out clean.
