Served this dish with lots of other pumpkin and spice based items, the folks wiped this stuff clean out the pan! Clean up was a breeze and I should have brought printouts because they were hot on me for recipe. Yay!

I have had this multiple times and it is delicious! One piece of advice: Do not get in a hurry when baking it! Let it cook completely. I have had it under-baked and it has a funky texture. It's super tasty though, and much better than pumpkin pie in my opinion :)

We drizzle this with chocolate syrup. Decadent! I always mix the butter and cake mix and I too use unsalted butter. My husband once piled it over a brownie, put ice cream on top and of course I HAD to try it. Delicious!

Took this to office carry-in meal a while back. My boss dubbed it 'Pumpkin Crack' because it is so addictive. Coworkers now request this to be my contribution... If only they knew how easy it is!

I like to swirl the cake mix with the pumpkin mix a little after adding the butter for a better blend.

 Sue (California) says:
I too add the butter to the cake mix and mix till it is crumbly. I also put some cream cheese into the crumb mixture or add 8 oz. cream cheese to the pumpkin mixture.

Try adding whip cream as soon as it comes it off the oven. Spread all over to of cake. It melts nicely almost carmalizing on top.

Love this cake. I used a golden butter cake mix, 15 ounce can pumpkin and 1 stick of butter - turned out amazing!!!

 Paula (Colorado) says:
I have made this on several occasions but I also use a spice cake mix along with pecans or walnuts . But, after it has cooled a bit I drizzle caramel ice cream topping over it. Really really good stuff.

Really Pumpkin-y tasting. Moist & fragrant. Topping is crunchy while other is pudding-like. Very nice.

This recipe is also known as "Pumpkin Praline Dessert" and I think it was a BCrocker recipe. I never realized it was a dump cake at all, but when I made it last weekend I thought it seemed a little like a "dump cake" but it really isn't. I thought that dump cakes generally don't require the mixing of any ingredients, it was just dump it in the pan, spread it out and dump on the next layer! Anyway, it's very good and I'm glad I made it (though under the other name).

I use a similar recipe but after cool I turn mine out on to a cake tray and frost with a cool whip/cream cheese mix. Yummy!
