Made this and the chocolate stout cake for Tyler's birthday. Oh man it was good! Forgot to mention that instead of pulling it out of the oven when it was done, I cracked the oven door and let it cool slowly. Not sure if it actually made a difference, but it was an attempt to prevent surface cracks.
Ingredients:
- 1 package yellow cake mix
- 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 egg
- 8 tbsp butter, melted
- 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 (15 oz) can of pumpkin
- 3 eggs
- 8 tbsp butter, melted
- 16 oz powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp nutmeg
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350. Combine cake mix, egg, butter, and cream cheese; mix well. Spread mixture into a 9" x 13" lightly greased baking pan.
- Filling: In large bowl, beat cream cheese and pumpkin until smooth. Add eggs, butter, vanilla, and beat together. Next add the powdered sugar, cinnamon, nutmet, and mix well. Spread pumpkin mixture over cake batter and bake for 40 to 50 minutes. Make sure not to over bake.
Variation: Use 20 oz drained crushed pineapple instead of pumpkin or use chocolate cake mix and 1 1/2 cups of smooth peanut butter.
