Ingredients
- 15 oz Canned pumpkin puree
- 12 oz Evaporated milk
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 3 Eggs
- 2 tsp Pumpkin pie spice
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 1 box Yellow cake mix (boxed)
- 0.75 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup Chopped pecans
- 0 Whipped cream (optional for topping)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish lightly with cooking spray or butter.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the canned pumpkin puree, evaporated milk, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, pumpkin pie spice, and salt until smooth.
Step 3
Pour the pumpkin mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Step 4
Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the pumpkin mixture, making sure it covers the surface completely.
Step 5
Drizzle the melted butter over the top of the cake mix, ensuring even coverage.
Step 6
Sprinkle the chopped pecans evenly over the buttered cake mix layer.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is set (a knife inserted into the center should come out mostly clean).
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature. The dessert can also be chilled in the refrigerator if you prefer it cold.
Step 9
Slice into squares or scoop servings and top with whipped cream before serving, if desired.
