These Pumpkin Chocolate Swirl Bars are such a treat. I made these for my honey on Valentine’s Day, and he absolutely adored them. The plan was to eat a few that day, and then just keep the rest in the freezer for whenever we felt like having a treat in the future. All you need is one or two to completely satisfy a mid-afternoon or post-dinner sweet craving, so keeping them in the freezer is the best option to keep them fresh and allow them to last a long time (about one month).

Since my husband and his buddies surprised my two girl friends and I with a Valentine’s Day triple date night extravaganza at my house, I thought it was the perfect opportunity to take these little treats out of the freezer again and share them with everyone after dinner along with a nice cup of coffee.

And of course, since these Pumpkin Chocolate Swirl Bars are rich, everyone just took one or two and felt completely happy and satisfied (not to mention, we had two other desserts on the table: Coconut Dream Bars and Paleo Chocolate Covered Strawberries).

Enjoy these creamy and delicious dessert bars. They are sure to put a smile on your and your loved ones’ faces.
