So, in honor of all my new 'likes', that are mostly from the Mom2moms fan page, I decided to do a recipe that would be easy for you to do with your kids! I however, do not have any kids (yet).. So instead, I have my beautiful 3 year old niece, Emily, here to help me! So here it goes!

Pumpkin Pie Bars
Preheat oven to 350. 
Crust:
Approx. 2 cups of crushed ginger snaps (about 30 or so) 
6 Tbl. melted butter

Directions: To crush ginger snaps, either put them through a food processor, or do what I did and throw them in a gallon size zip lock and let the kiddos have at it with a rolling pin. (Emily seems to have a lot of anger for a 3 year old. lol). Mix crushed cookies in a bowl with melted butter. Press into the bottom of an 8'' square pan.

Filling:
1 (15oz) can of pumpkin
1 (12oz) can of evaporated milk
2 eggs, beaten
3/4 cup sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp vanilla

Directions: In a mixing bowl, mix all ingredients. (Easy enough, right? lol) Pour over your crust. Bake for 45-50 minutes, rotating halfway through bake time. Let completely cool.
