Instead of pumpkin pie, try a pumpkin pie cake this year.  All the flavor and goodness of pie but so much easier in cake form!

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

With Pumpkin Pie Cake, you get all the same flavor and texture of pumpkin pie with a lot less work.  There is no pie crust required.The cake is also super easy because it uses a cake mix.  Part of the cake mix is added into the pumpkin mixture and the rest is saved to sprinkle over the top which creates a yummy topping to the cake. Easy and delicious is my favorite combination for holiday cooking.

    Hi Leigh, I will be making this cake today for my husband’s birthday. My question is about the evaporated milk; do I need to use 2 cans, or can I get away with only one?

    Should the cakes be refrigerated after they are made?
