Twice a year, our church has a blood drive for the American Red Cross. These pumpkin bars
are requested for every blood drive and are definitely loved by our donors and volunteers. I
usually add some ginger, cloves and freshly ground nutmeg to the recipe and bake them in a 15 x 10 pan for 30 minutes. A great recipe and so easy to do!
