That’s not counting the taste test(s) that happened while the butter and sugar were melting in the saucepan. Frosting + pumpkin bar -> mouth. Be still my beating heart. I’m not trying to ignore the goodness of the pumpkin bars, but there is nothing quite like melted butter and brown sugar frosting that is somehow both creamy and glazey at the same time. It was made to go with pumpkiny cinnamony goodness. W-o-w. Maybe pumpkin bars aren’t your thing. Which makes me wonder, who the heck are you? That’s a sad story. Maybe you’re in love with cream cheese frosting. Get.over.it. This old-fashioned caramel frosting? I won’t take no for an answer. You need to make it, like, yesterday.
