EASY PUMPKIN DUMP CAKE

Words cannot describe how yummy this cake is. It's been a hit each time I've made it. It's easy and tasty, what more could you ask for?

Provided by Indiana Nurse

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

29 ounces pumpkin puree
12 ounces evaporated milk
3 large eggs
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon cinnamon
18 ounces yellow cake mix
1 cup chopped pecans
3/4 cup melted margarine
whipped topping

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Mix pumpkin, milk, eggs, sugar, salt and cinnamon.
  • Pour batter into a greased 9 x 13 pan.
  • Sprinkle cake mix over batter.
  • Sprinkle pecans over cake mix.
  • Drizzle melted margarine over all.
  • Bake for 50 minutes.
  • Can top with whipped topping if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pumpkin puree. Not all pumpkin purees are created equal. Look for a puree that is smooth and free of lumps. Avoid purees that have been watered down or contain added ingredients.
  • Use fresh spices. Ground spices lose their flavor over time, so it is best to use fresh spices whenever possible. If you don't have fresh spices on hand, you can use ground spices, but be sure to use half the amount called for in the recipe.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the cake tough. Stir the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This is the best way to ensure that the cake is cooked through.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin dump cake is an easy and delicious dessert that is perfect for fall. With its simple ingredients and quick preparation time, this cake is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dessert, give pumpkin dump cake a try. You won't be disappointed!
