Last month I shared my Pumpkin Whip recipe.  Today I have another delicious and incredibly easy pumpkin dessert!  I’ve only been making this Pumpkin Dump Cake for a year or two, but it’s become a fall staple.

How did this recipe come about?  Well, my sister had a pot luck at work and came home talking about this recipe.  Of course my reply was, “did you ask for the recipe.” She finally brought that magical recipe home and it did not disappoint.

    I love this! My question is, should it be refrigerated after baked?

      Hi Tiffany! Yes, this does need to be refrigerated. Enjoy!

    When you put in the cake mix, it is just the mix right (not made with eggs, water, oil, etc.)?

      Hi Stephanie 🙂 Yes, just the dry cake mix — do NOT mix the cake mix per instructions on the box. Enjoy!

    I love anything pumpkin so this is definitely going on my recipe to-do list this fall. I’ll just have to make a few tweaks to make it vegan friendly. Thanks for sharing!

      Hi Dee. I honestly don’t know… I’ve never tried making it any other way. Give it a try and let me know how it goes. Cheers!

    Just made this for an event. I did exactly as the recipe called for and the top looks just like the one pictured. However, the bottom pumpkin part is not runny, but “wet”. Is this how it is supposed to be? And is it supposed to be served via a spoon or cut like cake squares? My issue is that I personally don’t like pumpkin so I don’t know how it is supposed to look/tase lol.

      Hi Vicki. Yes, it’s wet and served with a spoon. This doesn’t have a consistency for cutting. Sounds like you nailed it! Have a great week. Hugs.

    I made this yesterday and am making another for our Christmas dinner today. I substituted eggnog for the evaporated milk and rum flavoring in place of vanilla and it is so yummy. It is a little wet on the bottom making it more of a cobbler consistency instead of a cake. I definitely would reccomend this recipe!

    Delicious taste! I was surprised by the texture. Not cake-like at all. A knife goes right through it. Is that the way it’s supposed to be? Had a bite for breakfast….yum!!!

    We made this for a local food kitchen we cook for once a month and our patrons said it was one of the best desserts they’d ever had. We did have to bake a bit longer (we baked for 60 minutes and then covered with foil and baked another 10 minutes)….then let rest/cool for about 20 minutes. We used chopped pecans on top and the top came out nice and crunchy. The filling was a lot like sweet potato souffle but a bit more solid. It tasted FABULOUS! We usually allow patrons to have second helpings but we had a lot of folks asking for thirds! We actually tripled the recipe without any problems…..great for a large crowd (60+ people!). We followed the recipe exactly, just tripled all ingredients

    I can see this recipe has been made for years! I made it for Thanksgiving. Oh my gosh! It is YUMMY! I made it with the 29 oz can and not soupy at all. Perfect custard! I’ve made dump cakes in past year’s but this takes the cake 😁
    I didn’t use the entire cake mix. I probably used 2\3 of it. We love it! Making it again for Christmas
