Ingredients

  • 29 oz can pumpkin puree
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 12 oz evaporated milk
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 (18.25 oz) package spice cake mix
  • 1/2 cup butter melted
  • whipped cream optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly coat a 9×13-inch baking dish with baking spray. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar, evaporated milk, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  • Pour the pumpkin mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it into an even layer.
  • In a separate bowl, pour the melted butter over the dry spice cake mix. Use a fork to toss them together until small clumps begin to form. The texture should resemble coarse crumbs.
  • Sprinkle the buttered cake mix evenly over the pumpkin mixture in the pan, covering the surface completely.
  • Bake for 60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is mostly set.
  • Allow the cake to come to room temperature, then transfer it to the refrigerator. Chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • Slice and serve cold with a generous dollop of whipped cream.

Notes

What if I can’t find spice cake mix?
No problem! You can substitute the spice cake mix with either pumpkin cake mix or a yellow cake mix. The yellow mix will produce a slightly different flavor, but will be equally delicious.
Toppings for dump cakes?
We like to serve this easy cake with a dollop of whipped cream or cool whip. However, if you want to add a nice little crunch to the texture, you could add some chopped pecans with the cake mix before baking.
How long does a dump cake last?
If you store the cake covered and in the refrigerator it will last up to 4 days. Which makes this the perfect make-ahead Thanksgiving dessert recipe.
