• Easy to Serve Dessert Bars – Unlike traditional cheesecake, these bars are simple to slice and serve, making them ideal for parties, potlucks, and holiday gatherings.
• Caramel Takes Them to the Next Level – A drizzle of caramel sauce adds a rich, indulgent finishing touch that compliments the pumpkin and cheesecake beautifully.
• Crowd Pleasing Holiday Dessert – Combining Pumpkin Pie, cheesecake, streusel, and caramel means there is something for everyone to love.

Ingredients You’ll Need for the Crust:

• 12 Graham Crackers – Creates a classic, slightly sweet crust that pairs perfectly with the creamy cheesecake filling.
• 1/4 cup Brown Sugar – Adds warmth and a subtle caramel flavor to the crust.
• 8 tbsp Butter (Melted) – Helps bind the crust ingredients together while adding richness.

The Cheesecake:

• 4 (8 oz) Cream Cheese (Softened) – The foundation of the cheesecake, creating a smooth, rich, and creamy texture.
• 1 1/2 cups Sugar – Sweetens the filling and balances the tanginess of the cream cheese.
• 2 tsp Vanilla – Enhances the overall flavor and adds depth to the cheesecake.
• 4 Eggs – Helps the cheesecake set properly while contributing to its silky texture.
• 1 (15 oz) can Pumpkin – Adds moisture, beautiful color, and classic pumpkin flavor.
• 1 tsp Cinnamon – Brings warmth and compliments the pumpkin perfectly.
• 2 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice – Adds cozy Fall flavors like cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves.

And the Streusel Topping:

• 1 cup Brown Sugar – Creates a sweet, caramel like flavor in the crumb topping.
• 1 cup Flour – Forms the base of the streusel and helps create the perfect crumbly texture.
• 1/2 cup Quick Oats – Adds hearty texture and a subtle chewiness to the topping.
• 1/2 tsp Cinnamon – Enhances the warm Fall flavors throughout the dessert.
• 8 tbsp Butter (Softened) – Brings the streusel together and helps it bake into a golden, buttery crumble.
• 2 tsp Vanilla – Adds extra flavor and sweetness to the topping.
• Caramel Sauce – Drizzled over the bars for an indulgent finishing touch that pairs beautifully with the pumpkin cheesecake.

How to Make Pumpkin Caramel Cheesecake Bars

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9 x 13 pan with non-stick spray.
