update - I made this the other day and it set up into bars just fine. I did cook it an extra 5 minutes. I also used "pumpkin water (see my latest rant about canning pumpkin) and powdered milk to make the evaporated milk, and I think I used too much water, but it still set up just fine.

Just thought I would share
