Ingredients
– 1 box spice cake mix
– 1 (15 oz) can pumpkin puree
– 1/2 cup vegetable oil
– 3 large eggs
– 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
– 4 cups powdered sugar
– 1/4 cup milk
– 1 tbsp pumpkin pie spice
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– Optional: whipped cream for topping
Equipment Needed
– 9×13 inch baking pan
– Mixing bowls
– Electric mixer (optional, but makes it easier!)
– Rubber spatula
– Measuring cups and spoons
Step-by-Step Instructions
To get started, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your baking pan. In a mixing bowl, combine the spice cake mix, pumpkin puree, oil, and eggs. I find it helps to mix these on low for a bit before cranking up the speed to prevent a flour cloud! Once everything is well combined, it should be thick and aromatic. Pour this mixture into your greased pan and smooth it out with a spatula. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
