Description

This is great to make in the fall—different from your traditional dump cake recipes.

Ingredients

  • 1 can Solid Pumpkin (15 Oz.)
  • 12 ounces, fluid Evaporated Milk
  • 3 Eggs
  • 1-½ cup White Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • 1 box Yellow Cake Mix
  • ½ cups Chopped Pecans
  • 1 cup Butter Or Margarine (2 Sticks)

Preparation

Preheat over to 350 degrees (325 degrees if using a glass baking pan). Grease bottom of a 9″ x 11″ baking pan.

In mixing bowl, beat pumpkin, evaporated milk, eggs, sugar, cinnamon and salt. Pour into baking dish.

Sprinkle the box of cake mix evenly over top of pumpkin mixture. Top with pecans.

Slice sticks of butter or margarine into thin slices, distributing evenly over top of cake mix/pecans.

Bake for 50 – 55 minutes. This is great when served warm!

I made this a while ago but forgot to review. (sorry!)
This cake is excellent! The pumpkin part was so moist and almost custard like and the topping was delicious. The only thing I would change would be to use a bit less than the whole box of cake mix. That’s just my personal preferance though.

I’m not a fan of pumpkin, but because my family likes it, I made this for Thanksgiving. I almost had to fight ‘em all for the last piece! This is such an awesome dessert that I’ve changed my opinion of pumpkin!
