This is one of my favorite family recipes. I look forward to Thanksgiving every year because I know that we are going to be getting this cake. I personally am not a big pie person, but give me a good, moist, dense, piece of cake any day and I'll be happy!
One pie I do like is Pumpkin, but like I said, cake is better, so when I was little and my Mom came up with this recipe just for me I was in heaven. It brought 2 of my favorites together. Pumpkin and cake. Delish!
Ingredients
1 15oz can of Pumpkin
1 12oz. can Evaporated Milk
3 Eggs
1 1/2 cups Sugar
1 tsp. Cinnamon
1/2 tsp. Salt
1 box Yellow Cake mix
1 cup roughly chopped Pecans
1 cup Butter melted
Homemade Sweet Whipped Cream
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine pumpkin, evaporated milk, eggs, sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a mixer. Mix on medium speed until well combined. Pour batter into a greased 13×9 baking dish.Run cake mix through a sifter to get lumps out and sprinkle dry cake mix evenly over pumpkin mixture. Top with pecans. Drizzle melted butter over pecans.
Bake for 50-55 minutes or until golden brown. Cool. Serve chilled (or warm). Top with a dollop of Sweet Whipped Cream. Enjoy!!
What nice cake look amazing! gloria
ReplyDeleteYum! I think I can actually make it!
ReplyDeleteI made this last night for Thanksgiving dinner and per the family it is AWESOME! Very easy to make, and absolutely delicious. No one wanted to even have a slice of the Pumpkin Pie. It's a keeper and the vote is in that this will be a traditional dessert for Thanksgiving. Thanks for the recipe.
