For the Pumpkin Bars:
1 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 cups granulated sugar
1 can (15 oz) pumpkin puree
4 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

For the Cream Cheese Frosting:8 oz cream cheese, softened
½ cup unsalted butter, softened

2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease and line a 9×13-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar until well combined.
Add the pumpkin puree, eggs, and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.

While the bars are cooling, prepare the cream cheese frosting.
In a medium mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy.
Gradually add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and salt, beating until the frosting is smooth and fluffy.
Once the pumpkin bars are completely cool, spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the top. Cut into squares and serve.
