Oh yum! This crumb cake is what happens when pumpkin pie and spice cake get married. The cinnamon in the crumb topping along with the spice cake crust makes the deliciously aromatic. A creamy pumpkin filling adds a smooth texture to the cake. It's easy to prepare and sure to be a crowd pleaser at any gathering.
