I do something similar that is so easy...just use a spice cake mix and a small can of pumpkin then mix together. No need to add anything else. I spread mine in a bar pan and bake at 350 until cooked. Then mix powder sugar with cream cheese for the topping. No eggs required! My kids call them pumpkin brownies or pumpkin bars.
