Pumpkin Cheesecake Bars on a gray plate, perfect for Southern Supper Club desserts.

Pumpkin Cheesecake Bars

Mandy Applegate
Pumpkin Cheesecake Bars always remind me of the cozy fall evenings I grew up with in the South. The mix of creamy cheesecake and spiced pumpkin makes this dessert feel right at home on any Southern table. It is simple to bake, yet special enough to share with family and friends.
