Because we know that Fall and Pumpkin Frappuccino from Starbucks are just around the corner, I thought you might love to get a jumpstart on making or at least thinking about making some pumpkin desserts. This is one of the best! Years ago the first time we moved to California for Randy‘s job we were a part of Chuck Swindoll‘s old church EV free in Fullerton and I was a part of our school ladies Bible study which met every Monday night. One evening in the fall when we got there these pumpkin brownies were on the counter for our dessert. I have shared it on the blog before, but it’s been several years, so wanted to treat you to a great pumpkin recipe that is different from the pumpkin cakes, pies and cookies that grace the pages of so many cookbooks! The fact that it is handwritten from the lady who made them that night makes it such a sweet memory every time I look at it! And I’m sure I don’t need to tell you that I substitute butter for the margarine in the cream cheese mixture.
Before I forget, we had some friends come for lunch today and they even brought the lunch! As good as the lunch was, the best part was the house warming gift….a pound of butter! Do they know the way to my heart or what??? Peggy….you win the prize for the greatest gift yet!!!
