This year we decided to run a Thanksgiving recipe contest for November’s Facebook contest. We thought it was a fun way to celebrate the season, and we got some great entries. Thanks to everyone who entered! It was a hard choice, but here is our winner:
Pumpkin Pie Cake
- 1 large can pumpkin purée
- 1 can evaporated milk
- 3 eggs slightly beaten
- 1 cup white sugar
- 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice (or 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp cloves)
- 1/4 tsp salt
Mix above ingredients together and place in an ungreased 9×13 pan. Top with a yellow cake mix and 1 to 1 1/2 cubes of butter cut into cake mix. Or if you’re in a hurry cover the pumpkin mixture with the dry mix and drop the pieces of butter over the top. Sprinkle with 1/2 to 1 cup of nuts (we use walnuts but pecans would be great). Bake at 350F. Cook for 45-50 minutes until pumpkin is set and topping is golden.
