How to Make Easy Pumpkin Cheesecake Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix, 1 large egg, ½ cup (1 stick) melted margarine, and 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice. Mix on low speed until crumbly.
- Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a greased 15x10 inch baking pan.
- In a separate large bowl, beat 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese until smooth and fluffy.
- Gradually beat in 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk, 2 large eggs, 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree, 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Mix until well combined.
- Pour the pumpkin cheesecake filling evenly over the prepared crust.
- Sprinkle with ½ cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional).
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and the edges are lightly golden.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before refrigerating for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the cheesecake to set completely.
- Once chilled, cut into bars and serve. Store covered in the refrigerator.
