This is a delicious twist on pumpkin pie. I’m not sure if it’s a cake or a pie or a combination of both.
Remove 1 cup of the cake mix, mix the remaining with 1/4 cup butter and egg.
Press into 9 x 13 cake pan.
Mix together pumpkin, eggs, canned milk, brown sugar and cinnamon
Pour over crust.
Mix remaining cake mix, 1/4 cup melted butter and sugar. Sprinkle over pumpkin mixture.
I always add chopped walnuts……at least on half the cake.
Bake and enjoy warm with ice cream or whipped cream!

Wow ! This is by far my new favorite dessert recipe. My aunt asked me to make this and I only needed to purchase one ingredient. It was easy to make as a mother of two boys. Filled my house with an amazing spell of fall and served with vanilla ice cream. I’ll make this yearly now.
Sounds great. Can’t wait to try it.
Hi, what size is the “large can” of pumpkin? 15 or 29oz?
29 oz.
This recipe is so easy BUT the resulting dessert is decadent and tastes like so much more work was put into it! It’s such a pleasing delicious dessert and everyone who I treat to this pumpkin delight is wowed and wants the recipe. I did alter it a smidge. I used 2/3 cup of sugar in the topping and pecans instead of walnuts. Also, I used pumpkin pie spice instead of cinnamon. Thank you so much for this killer recipe!
