Easy Pumpkin Pie Bars - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 large eggs
1 1/2 cups white sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1 (29 ounce) can pumpkin puree
2 (12 ounce) cans evaporated milk
1 (15.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix, divided
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed (optional)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Beat eggs in a large bowl. Whisk sugar, cinnamon, salt, ginger, and cloves together in a separate bowl. Stir sugar mixture and pumpkin into eggs until completely incorporated.
Gradually stir evaporated milk into pumpkin mixture. Add 1 cup yellow cake mix to the pumpkin mixture and stir to remove any lumps. Pour mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish. Sprinkle remaining yellow cake mix over the top and drizzle butter over the cake mix.
Bake in the preheated oven until set, about 1 hour. Cool to room temperature and cut into bars. Top with whipped topping.
