Ingredients

  • 1 Spice cake mix
  • 15 oz can pumpkin
  • 1 cup water
  • 3 eggs
  • ½ cup oil
  • ¾ cup caramel topping divided
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 2 Tbsp milk
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 8 oz Cool Whip thawed

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°. Mix cake mix, pumpkin, water, eggs and oil until well combined. Pour the batter into a greased 9X13 pan and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Cool cake for 10 minutes and then poke holes about an inch apart all over the cake with the handle of a wooden spoon.
  • Heat 1/2 cup caramel topping for about 20-30 seconds in the microwave. Pour warm caramel all over the holes in the cake.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before making the topping.
  • To make the topping, beat the cream cheese, milk and powdered sugar together until smooth. Fold in the Cool Whip and mix completely. Spread topping over the cooled cake.
  • Use the remaining caramel sauce to drizzle across the top of the cake. Refrigerate until ready to serve!
