Pumpkin Yummy Dessert
Description
Pumpkin Yummy Dessert blends canned pumpkin puree with condensed milk, brown sugar, eggs, and warm spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger, poured into a prepared pan. A dry yellow cake mix is sprinkled over the pumpkin mixture without mixing, then melted salted butter is drizzled on top. Baking at 350°F begins by setting the pumpkin layer before adding optional chopped nuts near the end, allowing the cake mix topping to bake into a golden, slightly crisp crust. This method produces a dessert with a moist, spiced pumpkin layer underneath a delicate, buttery cake crust. The nuts add texture and visual appeal once sprinkled near the final baking stage. Leftovers keep up to 3 days refrigerated, making it convenient for preparing ahead and enjoying later.
Ingredients
- 28 ounce pumpkin puree canned
- 14 ounce sweetened condensed milk can
- ½ cup light brown sugar
- 3 egg
- 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 yellow cake mix box, 2-layer size
- 8 tablespoons butter salted, melted
- 1 cup walnuts optional, chopped, or pecans
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin, sweetened condensed milk, brown sugar, eggs, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and salt. Pour the pumpkin mixture into the prepared pan and spread into an even layer. Sprinkle the dry cake mixture evenly over the top of the pumpkin mixture. Pour the melted butter slowly and evenly all over the top of the cake mix. DO NOT MIX.
- Bake for 40 minutes, then sprinkle the nuts over top (if using), and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the top is lightly browned and puffed. Allow to cool to room temperature before slicing and serving. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Notes
- Store leftovers tightly covered in the refrigerator and consume within 3 days for best texture and freshness.
- Adding walnuts or pecans after initial baking preserves their crunch in the final dessert.
- Let the dessert cool completely to room temperature before slicing to ensure clean pieces.
