I have been making this cake for years and it is positively delicious, as well as easy to prepare. Am planning to make two of them next week for a church function. I would not add or take away anything

I made this wonderful but tweaked just a bit. On top of the cake mixture after cooling I made a cream cheese icing sprinkled with roasted pumpkin seeds.

I did this in two (decorative) 9x9 pans. I added 1/2 cup applesauce to increase the amount of the batter a bit. Substituting whole pecans on top (instead of walnuts) adds to the appearance & holiday appeal.

My mom brought this home from a party about 35 years ago. My family loved it so much everyone makes this every year! Its delicious and easy to make! Ive made it for the last 25 years on my own and Thanksgiving wouldn't be the same without it!!

Making this recipe now...I hope it tastes as good as it smells...we will see soon enough ..the only thing I found so far w about 10 min left of baking is there is a couple spots that look a little powdery from the cake mix ..but we will see how it goes. Thanks for the recipe :)

Awesome pie cake! Only things I did do different was use solid pack pumpkin, reduced sugar and butter to 1/2 cup and used a Gluten Free cake mix instead of regular. It turned out wonderful! Adore anything pumpkin and this was a hit!

This recipe is great and I will for sure make it again. When I made it I used pumpkin pie mix omitting the pumpkin pie spice. I also topped it with chopped walnuts, butterscotch chips and poured a small can of sweetened condensed milk over the top. I cooked it according to the back of the pumpkin pie mix can. I really love how it turned out. It has a sweet chewy/crunchy top with a pumpkin pie middle. Next time I may use only half a can of the condensed milk just for comparison.

Simple to make and it gets lots of compliments.

I reduced the amount of butter to 1/2 cup and I think you could reduce the sugar to 3/4 cups.

I've made this before but lost the recipe, so glad I found it again! I slice 2 sticks of butter over the top to make it really decadent & rich, its awesome, can't wait to try it with sweet potatoes.. I left off pecans/walnuts, didn't really need them. I'm introducing this to my granddaughter who thinks pumpkin pie is the best, she will change her mind after one bite!
