Pumpkin Pecan Pie Bars {Welcome Lindy of Itsy Bitsy Paper}

I'm so super excited to be posting here at Delightfully Noted's Blog!  Jennifer and I have developed a great friendship through our online chats and I was honored when she asked me to share something with her readers.  

It's November and all I can think of is Thanksgiving and the big meal and all the delicious desserts!  I saw this recipe recently in the Cuisine at Home Magazine and just had to give it a try.  It does have a lot of ingredients but it's a very good dessert.  I like it cold better than room temp so I'd recommend putting it in the fridge.
