Pumpkin Pie Cake 3

Do you want to know the one dessert that I make multiple times a year in November and December?  Seriously.  Not only is it a huge hit with our own family, it’s also a hit among anyone and everyone we take it to.  I already made it for a party this past week and now we’ve made it again for my husband’s work Thanksgiving Dinner.  Next, I’ll make it for my side of the family’s Thanksgiving dinner and then again probably for our Family Reunion Christmas Party on my husband’s side.  Everyone always raves about it.  Everyone always asks for the recipe, too!

It’s like pumpkin pie with a crumbly cake topping, which makes it even better than pumpkin pie!  It’s delicious served with whipped topping on top.  Let me make it easy for you.  I will provide you a printable recipe, if you will just try it!  If you’re taking it to a group function, be sure to print out several recipes so that you can hand them out when everyone wants to know what it is you made!  I’m telling you, it’s good stuff.  🙂

This cake came from a recipe book I started as a child.  I was homeschooled 10th grade through 12th grade, and while I was, when we’d cook something good, I’d write down the recipe so I could share it with my own family when I had one.  I’m so glad that I did!

 

Pumpkin Pie Cake

1 can pumpkin (29 oz)
4 eggs
1 can evaporated milk  (I always substitute with 1 1/4 cup of regular milk and don’t notice a difference)
1 1/2 cups of sugar or honey
1 t. ginger
2 t. cinnamon
1/2 . salt

1 yellow cake mix
1 cup chopped nuts
1 cup melted butter

  • Mix first 7 ingredients and pour into ungreased 9×13 cake pan. 
  • Sprinkle dry cake mix over pumpkin (drizzle butter over mix). 
  • Sprinklie with nuts. 
  • Bake at 350 degrees for one hour.

This “cake” is so good topped with cool whip!

  • Amorette DavisUser of the Free Freezer to Slow Cooker One Week Menu

    Thank you so much! As a special needs mommy these recipes have helped us so much.   I often am very busy with being a nurse for our child that I don't have time for making sure we get meals.  This allows me to do all my prep on the weekends, while my husband is home to help, and to cook during the week.  So grateful!

  • Linda SearsOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Menus

    Sarah’s Freezer to Slow Cooker ebooks have been a fantastic addition to my meal plans.  They make meal planning easy and my family happy. I love the way each recipe is laid out, with a shopping list and ingredient prep list, along with cooking instructions. Sarah’s done all the hard work for me!  The recipes have used have all been delicious and easily adaptable to my family’s taste and the number of people I’m serving.

  • FranOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Ebooks
     I purchased all of your freezer to slow cooker ebooks a month or so ago and I'm in love with this way of cooking.  I now have taken all 10 weeks of recipes and written them of my menu planner and then I repeated the 10 weeks and will continue to do so throughout the year.  My family of 5 adults and 1 child enjoy the meals that you have planned and I have cooked and I'm excited that the next time when that meal comes due up in the rotation I won't have to purchase anything but just pull it from the freezer.  Thank you so much

    This makes my life so much easier. I'm a busy work at home/stay at home mom, wife, business woman and I feel like dinner is always the thing I just never get time to do. We have done like 15 of the crockpot recipes from Sarah and they are all very yummy. They get a thumbs up from my husband and kids every time. And there is always enough for my husband to take the left overs at least 2x per recipe. I have a family of 5, 2 adults, 21, 13, 16. So it makes plenty. Thank you Sarah.

    I am a 59-year-old wife and mother of two grown children.  I love your idea of fixing a lot of meals ahead of time and then pulling one out, put it in the crockpot, and you have dinner when you get home.  I hate feeling rushed when I cook so Monday - Friday I use those crockpot meals and make enough that we have lunch the next day.  I take Sunday afternoon, fix up what I need for the week (I don't have a lot of freezer space so I do a week's worth at a time) and I'm done with it!  Saturdays I like to try new recipes from some of my cookbooks which I am finding I can freeze as well!  So you have shown me a whole new way to organize my time and still put a healthy meal on the table.  Thanks so much and I look forward to future blogs.
