These spiced pumpkin-cream cheese bar cookies with a creamy, tangy swirl are perfect for Halloween or any autumn get-together.

Ingredients

6 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled 1 3/4 cups sugar 3 large eggs 1 cup canned pumpkin 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 1 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1 package (8 oz.) cream cheese, at room temperature

Instructions

In a bowl, with an electric mixer on medium speed, beat butter and 1 1/2 cups sugar until smooth. Beat in 2 eggs, pumpkin, and 1/3 cup water until well blended, scraping down sides of bowl as needed. In another bowl, mix flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and nutmeg; stir or beat into butter mixture until well blended. Spread batter evenly in a buttered and floured 10- by 15-inch baking pan. In a bowl, with an electric mixer on medium speed, beat cream cheese, remaining egg, and remaining 1/4 cup sugar until smooth. Drop cream cheese mixture in 24 evenly spaced 1-tablespoon portions over batter. Pull a knife tip through filling to swirl slightly into batter. Bake in a 350 ° oven until center of pumpkin batter (not cream cheese mixture) springs back when touched, about 30 minutes. Let cool completely in pan, then cut into 24 bars.
