Ingredients

Bottom Filling Layer

  • 1 (15 oz) can Pure Pumpkin Puree
  • 1 (12 oz) can Evaporated Milk
  • 3 Eggs
  • ½ cup White Sugar
  • ½ cup Brown Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon Ginger, powdered
  • 2 teaspoons Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • ¼ teaspoon Nutmeg, ground
  • ¼ teaspoon Cloves, ground

Top Layer

  • 1 box Yellow Cake Mix
  • 1 cup Butter, (2 sticks) cut in small cubes
  • 1 ½ cups Pecans, chopped (optional)

Instructions

Preheat & Prep

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9"×13" pan.

Make the Pumpkin Filling

  • In a large bowl whisk together pumpkin, evaporated milk, eggs, sugars, vanilla, and spices until smooth.

Layer the Filling

  • Pour pumpkin mixture into the prepared pan, spreading evenly.

Prepare the Topping

  • In a separate bowl, combine cake mix and cubed butter. Use a pastry blender (or two forks) to cut butter into the mix until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Assemble

  • Sprinkle the crumbly cake mix evenly over the pumpkin layer. Top with pecans, if using.

Bake

  • Bake 60–75 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.

Cool & Serve

  • Let cool 30 minutes so filling sets. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

Store in an airtight container in the fridge up to 3 days.
