Ingredients
  

  • 29 oz pumpkin puree
  • 12 oz evaporated milk
  • 1.5 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 15.25 oz yellow cake mix
  • ¾ cup pecans chopped
  • 1 cup butter melted

Instructions
 

  • Get Ready: First, turn your oven on to 350°F and spray your 9x13-inch casserole dish or pan with non-stick spray.
  • Mix the Filling: In a big bowl, mix your 29 oz pumpkin puree, 12 oz evaporated milk, 1 cup sugar, 4 large eggs, and 1.5 tsp pumpkin pie spice.
  • Layer the Cake: Pour the pumpkin mix into your pan. Then, sprinkle ¾ cup chopped pecans and the 15.25 oz dry cake mix over the top.
  • Add Butter and Bake: Pour 1 cup melted butter all over the top. Bake for 55-60 minutes until the top is golden and bubbly.
  • Cool and Serve: Let the cake cool for a few minutes before you cut into it. ENJOY!!!

Notes

  • Make sure you grab pure pumpkin purée, not the pumpkin pie filling.
  • Feel free to use a spice cake mix instead of yellow for an extra kick of flavor.
  • You can always swap out the pecans for walnuts if you like those better.
  • This dessert tastes amazing when it's still warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
  • You can store leftovers right on your counter for a few days—if they last that long
