Pumpkin Dump Cake

Pumpkin Dump Cake mixes canned pumpkin puree with evaporated milk, eggs, and warm spices, topped with yellow cake mix, pecans, and butter before baking into a rustic dessert. The texture combines moist spiced pumpkin filling beneath a crunchy, buttery cake crust. It is served warm often with whipped cream for contrast.

Description

This Pumpkin Dump Cake uses pumpkin puree blended with evaporated milk, ginger, cloves, sugar, eggs, and cinnamon to create a richly spiced, custard-like base poured into a greased 9x13 pan. On top, a dry yellow cake mix is sprinkled evenly and covered with chopped pecans and thin slices of butter that melt during baking, forming a sweet, crumbly crust.

Baking at 350°F for one hour allows the topping to brown and develop a crisp texture while the pumpkin mixture underneath sets into a moist filling. Serving it warm accentuates the comforting spices and contrasts the crisp topping with creamy filling. Whipped cream is a common accompaniment adding lightness.

Leftovers can be refrigerated for a few days and reheated in short microwave intervals. Variations include substituting the yellow cake mix with pumpkin spice cake mix or a homemade mix combining flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and butter for a personalized topping.
