How to Make Pumpkin Bars Bisquick

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 15x10x1 inch jelly roll pan.
In a large bowl, combine Bisquick mix, pumpkin puree, eggs, oil, sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract.
Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Increase mixer speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes, scraping down the sides occasionally.
Gently stir in the raisins.
Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the bars cool completely in the pan before frosting (approximately 2 hours).
While the bars are cooling, prepare the frosting: In a medium bowl, beat together cream cheese, butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually add powdered sugar, beating on low speed until light and fluffy.
Add milk, one tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency is reached.
Once the bars are completely cool, frost evenly.
Cut into 8 rows by 6 rows (48 bars) and store in the refrigerator for optimal freshness.
