Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 15 oz pumpkin puree
- 12 oz evaporated milk
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 eggs
- 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 15.25 oz yellow cake mix
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup chopped pecans (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray or butter.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, evaporated milk, granulated sugar, eggs, and pumpkin pie spice. Mix until smooth and fully incorporated.
Pour the pumpkin mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly using a spatula.
Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the pumpkin mixture to form a layer on top. Do not mix.
Melt the butter and drizzle it evenly over the top of the cake mix layer. Ensure as much of the surface is covered in butter as possible for even baking.
If using, evenly sprinkle the chopped pecans over the top for added crunch and flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
Remove the dump cake from the oven and let it cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This allows it to firm up slightly.
Serve warm or at room temperature, optionally topped with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.
