Pumpkin Pie Cake

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 13 x 9 inch baking pan. Remove 1 cup of the cake mix from the box, and set that aside.

In a large bowl, beat remaining cake mix, 1/2 cup of the butter, and 1 egg. Evenly press this mixture into the prepared pan.

In the same bowl that you just used, beat the pumpkin, the 3 remaining eggs, 1 cup of the sugar, the evaporated milk, and cinnamon. Pour this mixture over the crust.

Using the same bowl (wipe it out first if necessary) combine the reserved cake mix, remaining 1/2 cup sugar and 1/4 cup butter with a pastry blender until crumbly. Sprinkle evenly over the pumpkin filling. Sprinkle the pecans on top.

Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until filling is set. If you want to eat it warm, cool for at least 30 minutes before cutting into it. Serve with whipped cream!
