This recipe came from allrecipes. I read some of the reviews before I made it but missed the ones where they spoke of the topping. I made the topping, it was not a crumble. It was a gooey mixture that I could not crumble on top. Others had the same problem. I would skip the topping and let the bars cool and add whipped cream to the top! It would be just like a pumpkin pie!
