Step-by-Step Instructions
To start off, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In my kitchen, I love the moment I crack open the eggs and feel that surge of energy from the freshness. In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, pumpkin puree, water, three eggs, cinnamon, and nutmeg. I like to mix it all together using my hand mixer, which gives it that lovely whipped texture. The mixture should be smooth and velvety. Pour this batter into a greased 9×13 inch baking dish, spreading it evenly. It already smells divine, doesn’t it? (See the next page below to continue steps…)
