Now that it’s officially October, I no longer feel any shame about sharing my favorite pumpkin dessert recipes, like these pumpkin sopapilla cheesecake bars.
Okay, so I didn’t really feel too guilty about sharing pumpkin recipes way back in August, but it’s definitely more justified now that Halloween and Thanksgiving are right around the corner!
I’ve been making sopapilla cheesecake bars using Pillsbury Seamless Crescent dough for a few years now. It’s just such a simple recipe and one that I love taking to social events throughout the year.

Of course, with fall in the air and pumpkin on my mind, I wanted to try putting a new spin on my tried-and-true recipe. With just a few yummy changes to the recipe I already had, I was able to make these incredibly yummy pumpkin sopapilla cheesecake bars!
For so many years I stuck with traditional pumpkin pie as our Thanksgiving dessert, but I’ve found that it’s so fun to have different types of pumpkin desserts available to share at the table.
I made these pumpkin sopapilla cheesecake bars for Thanksgiving last year and they were a huge hit with everyone in my family. Such a hit, in fact, that I’ve already had requests about providing a repeat performance this year.
I’ve said it before, but I just love using Pillsbury Crescents in dessert recipes. This post isn’t sponsored in any way (though I have worked with Pillsbury several times in the past), I just honestly love the versatility of this ingredient.
As much as I wish I was a master baker, I’m really just a regular mom who likes to whip-up easy and yummy recipes for her family. I work quite a bit, so I honestly don’t have time for anything complicated in my life!
I’m growing quite a collection of my favorite pumpkin recipes here on the blog. Before you go, don’t miss my famous pumpkin crunch cake and the absolute best pumpkin cookies you’ll ever eat!
