this is not my picture. it's paula dean's. but my oh my is this an incredible pumpkin dessert! i don't like pumpkin pie, so i made this and it was unbelievable. (and super easy). oh, and if you know anything about paula dean, she does not do low fat. that's just how she is.cake:
1 package yellow cake mix
1 egg
8 TB butter, melted.
filling:
1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened (i used low fat)
1 (15 oz) can pumpkin
3 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
8 TB butter, melted
1 (16 oz) box powdered sugar (or 2 cups)
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp nutmeg
Preheat oven to 350.
Combine cake mix, egg and butter (for the cake) in a bowl and mix well with electric mixer. Pat mixture into bottom of lightly greased 9x13 pan.
Filling: Beat cream cheese and pumpkin until smooth. Add the eggs, vanilla and butter; beat together. Next add powdered sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and mix well. Spread pumpkin over cake batter and bake for 40-50 minutes. Make sure not to overbake, the center should be a little gooey. Serve with whipped cream.
*After melting butter, make sure it's cooled before adding it (or it'll cook the eggs!).
*I cooked mine for about 50 minutes, but I think it was too long. The center (and top) of cake won't be solid, but it shouldn't be runny.
