TIPS FOR MAKING THIS PUMPKIN CAKE:
If you can’t find spice cake mix, try using a carrot cake mix.
This can also be made into muffins as well.
The cream cheese needs to be fully softened before making the frosting. This will help it whip up more creamy without any lumps.
This cake needs to be kept refrigerated.
INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (FULL RECIPE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST)
pure pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
milk
HOW TO MAKE THIS EASY PUMPKIN SPICE CAKE:
Preheat oven to 350F degrees. Spray a 9×13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. I like the cooking spray that has flour in it (Baker’s Joy). In a bowl, mix together cake mix, pumpkin puree and eggs.Spread batter into prepared baking dish.
Bake for about 30 minutes until cake springs back to the touch and a toothpick comes out clean.
In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese and butter until smooth. This is easiest using a stand mixer or handheld electric mixer.
Add in powdered sugar and mix until smooth.
Then stir in vanilla. Remember, if using a stand mixer, it’s important that you periodically scrape down the sides of the bowl so all the ingredients get incorporated. And lastly, mix in the milk.
Mix until smooth then spread on cooled cake.
I like to put these little mallow creme pumpkins on top of the slices. If you are taking it to a potluck, it lets folks know that this is something with pumpkin in it.
