Instructions

Cake
    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and grease a 9×13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, add the yellow cake mix, eggs, milk, and vegetable oil. Whisk until the eggs and cake mix are well combined.
  3. Pour the cake mix into the bottom of the prepared pan and evenly spread to the sides of the pan.
  4. Set aside and work on the pumpkin layer.
Pumpkin Layer
  1. In a large bowl, add the pumpkin puree, milk, heavy whipping cream, eggs, brown sugar, and pumpkin spice. Whisk until the eggs are thoroughly incorporated.
  2. Carefully spoon the pumpkin mixture on top of the cake batter so it doesn’t mix. Do not pour the pumpkin layer on top it will cause the pumpkin custard to sink into the batter.
  3. Place in the preheated oven and bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour until a toothpick in just the cake layer comes out clean or with moist crumbs. To prevent the cake from overbrowning, tent the cake with aluminum foil but be sure it doesn’t interfere with the rising of the cake.
  4. Allow the cake to cool completely before preparing the frosting.
Frosting
  1. Add the pudding mix, pumpkin pie spice, and milk in a large bowl. Whisk until the pudding thickens.
  2. Fold in thawed whipped topping into the pudding mixture until no white steaks are left.
  3. Spread the frosting on the cooled cake and add sprinkles if you’re using them.
  4. Cover with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.

  • Storage: Store in an airtight container or covered with plastic wrap in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
