List of Ingredients





1 cup canned pumpkin
1-1/2 cups packed brown
3 eggs, beaten
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Walnut halves (optional)
1 teaspoon finely shredded
1 to 2 tablespoons orange juice
2 teaspoons baking powder
1-1/2 cups sifted powdered
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup finely shredded carrots
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup milk
2/3 cup cooking oil



Recipe



Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 15x10x1-inch baking pan; set aside.

2. In a large mixing bowl stir together the flour, baking powder, orange peel, baking soda, and salt. Set the flour mixture aside.

3. In a medium bowl combine eggs and brown sugar. Stir in pumpkin, oil, milk, and vanilla. Then stir in carrots and chopped walnuts.

4. Add egg mixture to flour mixture, stirring with a wooden spoon until combined. Spread batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes
or until a wooden toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack. Spread with Orange Icing; cut into triangles or bars. If desired, garnish each with a walnut half. Store in an airtight container in the
refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Makes 36 bars.

For Orange Icing: In a mixing bowl combine
powdered sugar and enough of the orange liqueur
or orange juice to make an icing that is easy to
drizzle.

Make-Ahead Tip: Bake bars as directed; cool
completely. Do not drizzle with icing. Place cut
bars in a freezer container and freeze for up to 1
month. Before serving, thaw for 15 minutes.
Prepare Orange Icing and drizzle as directed.
