Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish or spray with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside. Beat cake mix, dry pudding mix, pumpkin, oil, water, eggs, 1 ½ teaspoons of the cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and ginger in a large bowl with an electric mixer on low speed just until moistened, scraping the side of the bowl frequently. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes, or until well blended.
  2. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan on a wire rack.
  3. Stir the remaining ½ teaspoon of cinnamon into the cream cheese frosting.
  4. Spread the frosting evenly over the cooled cake.
  5. Slice and serve!
