How To Make pumpkin crunch cake

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Thoroughly grease a 13X9 cake pan.
  • Step 2
    Place in a large mixing bowl: pumpkin, milk, sugar, eggs, vanilla, spice and salt. Using an electric hand beater, mix well for about 1-2 minutes.
  • Step 3
    Pour pumpkin mixture in greased pan. Top with cake mix. Pat the cake mix down. Sprinkle pecans. Pour all over with melted butter.
  • Step 4
    Bake in 350 oven for 60 minutes or until set. (Jiggles just ever so slightly)
  • Step 5
    Best served warm. Enjoy with fresh whipped cream or ice cream. If refrigerated the 'crunch topping' will get very hard (from the butter).
