Preparation
Step 1
CAKE LAYER
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Combine the dry cake mix, the egg, and butter with a hand-held mixer or in a stand mixer. The mixture will be very firm.
Pat batter into a lightly greased 13x9-inch baking pan. Try to make it an even layer.
FILLING
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and pumpkin puree until smooth.
Add the eggs, vanilla, pumpkin pie spice extract, butter, and pumpkin pie spice. Mix with a hand-held mixer until ingredients are fully incorporated.
Add the powdered sugar and mix well.
Pour pumpkin mixture over cake batter and bake for 40 to 50 minutes.
Make sure not to over bake as the center should be a little gooey.
Serve with fresh whipped cream and sprinkle with cinnamon or a pumpkin pie spice blend.
