Fantastic Pumpkin Bread with Brown Sugar Cream Cheese Spread
“You’ve got to make this pumpkin bread. I always use Libbey’s pumpkin. You gunna love it cuz it tastes great and makes such nice gifts too.”
She had me at “You gotta make this.” Okay, Sue is in her new kitchen, she is sending me recipes, all is well again. 🙂
I did exactly what any good friend would do — went to the store, bought some pumpkin (and sugar – I was completely out) and I made pumpkin bread.
Oh my gosh this stuff is good.
I added the Brown Sugar Cream Cheese just for fun!
You outta make this — it is crazy good!
Happy Baking,
Catherine
John 15:12-15 “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command you. No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you.
