Get a large bowl out, and combine the eggs, oil, sugar, and pumpkin. Using a fork, mix very well until everything is incorporated. Add the remaining bar ingredients to a sifter, and do just that, sift it into the mixed pumpkin mixture. Mix well.

Into a lightly buttered and floured jelly roll pan, pour in the mixture. Place in the preheated oven for approximately 30 minutes, or until fully cooked. I like to insert a knife down the middle and make sure it comes out clean. Once you have achieved that, and I say that because all ovens are not the same so cook times may vary, then remove the cake and let it cool.

This is the time to make the frosting. To a mixing bowl, add the cream cheese, butter, vanilla extract, and the powdered sugar. Mix really well until all of the ingredients are combined. Ok, you must give it a taste. Now hurry and spread it over the top of the bread. Mix the spices together, and sprinkle the mixture onto the top of the frosting.

Cut into bars and enjoy. I'm telling you the entire family loved these bars, and my kids would ask for a piece after every meal. The cream cheese frosting and the pumpkin was a really great combination, that reminded me once again how much I love fall.
