Ginger Snaps Recipe Fresh Ginger
Now for these pumpkin bars, I'm intensifying the ginger snaps with fresh ginger. Yes, this ginger snaps recipe uses fresh ginger in the filling.

Mascarpone Desserts
Mascarpone is wonderful in desserts! It's somewhat different than cream cheese. Mascarpone is an Italian cream cheese and has a tad of sweetness. I also think it creates a lighter cheesecake than regular cream cheese. However, if you can't find mascarpone, certainly substitute regular or whipped cream cheese.
