These Pumpkin Spice Bars with Maple Frosting are so wonderful. I really like how moist they are and the frosting with maple puts these over the edge.

We were having a very chilly and dreary fall day so these beauties were the dessert following warm rolls and Tomato Basil Parmesan soup. Be sure to check out that recipe as well. It just cooks all day in the slow cooker and is ready when you are.
