Nothing says Fall like a great pumpkin dessert and this Easy Pumpkin Dump Cake is everything wonderful about this season in a pan.
I love an easy dessert recipe and this one is super-duper easy! The only way it could be easier is if it made itself.
Recipes with pumpkin have been gaining popularity over the last few years. Honestly I’ve been really slow to warm up to it. I had a lot of preconceived ideas about how I wouldn’t like pumpkin but it turns out I was wrong. I-was-so-wrong!
You make this pumpkin dump cake with yellow cake mix with sugar and cinnamon and pecans and it makes the whole house smell amazing.
This easy cake is prefect for feeding a crowd and a great alternative to a pumpkin pie for the holidays. Everyone will love the creamy pumpkin layer and the buttery crust. I serve this with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of caramel.
Happy Cooking Y’all!
