Ingredients
Scale
- Pumpkin Layer:
- 1 can (15 oz) pumpkin puree
- 1 can (12 oz) evaporated milk
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp ginger
- Topping:
- 1 box yellow cake mix
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish. 🧈
- In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, evaporated milk, eggs, sugar, and spices until smooth. Pour this creamy mixture into the prepared baking dish. 🎃
- Sprinkle the dry cake mix evenly over the pumpkin layer—don’t mix it! Just let it sit there like a cozy blanket.
- Drizzle the melted butter over the cake mix, covering as much as possible. If you’re feeling fancy, sprinkle the nuts on top for an extra crunch! 🌰
- Pop it in the oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the pumpkin layer is set. Your kitchen will smell like autumn magic! 🍂
- Let it cool slightly before serving. It’s perfect warm or at room temperature, especially with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. 🍨
