Description
This has become my family’s favorite dessert at Thanksgiving, taking the place of pumpkin pie! Walnuts can be substituted for pecans.
Ingredients
- 1 (29 ounce) can pumpkin puree
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground cloves
- salt to taste
- 1 ¾ cups white sugar
- 3 eggs
- 1 (12 fluid ounce) can evaporated milk
- 1 (18.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix with pudding
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- 1 cup butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- In a mixing bowl
- blend pumpkin
- cinnamon
- cloves
- salt
- sugar
- eggs
- and milk. Pour mixture into a 9×13-inch baking dish. Sprinkle dry cake mix and nuts over the batter. Pour melted butter over the cake.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes
- then let cool. The cake will be liquidy at first
- but will solidify as it cools.
