Culinary Cravings with Cindy Christiansen

Pumpkin Cheescake Bars

1 pkg pound cake
3 eggs
2 Tbs butter, melted
4 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 pkg cream cheese, softened
1 can sweet and condensed milk
1 can pumpkin, 15 oz.
1/2 tsp salt

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In large bowl, on low speed, combine cake mix, 1 egg, butter, and 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice until crumbly.
Press into bottom of 15 x 10 jellyroll pan, set aside.  (I just use a cake pan because that's what I have.)
In another bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy.  
Gradually beat in sweet and condensed milk, remaining 2 eggs, pumpkin, remaining spice and salt.  Mix well.
Pour over crust.

Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes or until set.
Cool, chill and store in fridge.

Single-minded Dean Harward is going to become a veterinarian if it kills him. He’s worked summers as a volunteer wildfire fighter to earn money for college. Just his luck, a pyrophobic woman gets assigned to his team. He’s certain she’ll get him killed before he can graduate.
Ginger Warby is a walking firestorm as accidents continually spark around her. Or are they accidents? Can Dean keep the flames of desire he reluctantly feels for her under control long enough to keep them and his Golden Labrador alive?
