Eleventh Day of Holiday Pumpkin Cookies, Susi's Pumpkin Pie Snickerdoodle Bars

A charity advertising marathon at work yesterday is cutting into cookie time and we're going to stop at eleven. It shouldn't hinder anyone's holiday cheer, because I have some great breakfast/brunch recipes, a pumpkin cheesecake and a couple of gift ideas I want to get out before Christmas.

I realize that Susi's pumpkin pie snickerdoodle bars were originally made for a once-a-year celebration, but with 3 sticks of butter, 3 cups of sugar, 4 cups of flour and 4 eggs packed into a 9 x 13 inch pan, that's really calorie dense for only 20 servings. My glass pan has rounded edges too; so if I made them again, I'd spread it out in a larger pan to produce thinner bars. Other than that, they taste great and look great too.
