Delicious and very easy to make. I won the dessert category of a local cooking contest with this recipe.

Very easy, very good dessert. I've made this a few times now. I made a mistake when making this then made it according to the recipe. I prefer my mistake. I used a golden butter recipe cake mix,3/4 c. white sugar, 1/4 c. brown sugar, 2 t. cinnamon, 1/2 t. ginger, 1/2 t. nutmeg, and 1/4 t. cloves. I mixed the cake mix with 1 c. butter then spooned batter over top and swirled to marble with the pumpkin. I then topped it with pecans. After baking 1 hour, I shut off oven and left for 20 minutes. My kids' friends, family, and ladies group have all loved it. It's kind of between a custard and a cake. Moist and dense. Bonus: it serves a lot.

I like cake much more than pie, but my husband had requested pumpkin pie. So, I tried this recipe and it did the trick. It's almost between a cake and pie, so both of us were happy. I left off the walnuts. I think what made this so tasty for me was the yellow cake mix drizzled with the butter on top; it made it taste a lot less pie-like. I added more cinnamon as some of the others had suggested.

DH wouldn't even touch it. Kids were less than enthused. Ended up handing it off to the brother-in-law, who devoured it in ten minutes. At least it didn't go to complete waste.

I made three. One with the yellow cake mix, one with pecan buttercrunch mix and one with spice cake mix. None turned out for me.

This was pretty tasty. I am a big fan of all things pumpkin, and this was good. It wasn't the best pupkin dessert I have ever had, but I might make it again.

I will be the first to admit I'm not fond of pumpkin pie. These knocked my socks off! So easy and quick to prepare; I've made these twice in the past week, exactly as directed and they have been gobbled up. I did leave them in the oven 5-6 extra minutes. On the second batch, I used pecan halves instead of chopping them up. Excellent fall/holiday treat. Thanks for the recipe!

I thought this was okay, I prefer Pumpkin Pie over this though. Everyone else seemed to think it was fine.

awesome recipe. all of my friends asked for it.. and it was easy to make. great way to jazz up the traditional pumpkin pie!

Not bad, but not what I was thinking. I guess I did not realize it would be so close to pumpkin pie in texture. The flavor was good. We did enjoy it much more the next day.

Great and easy dessert- has the wonderful pumpkin pie taste with an added sweetness and crunchiness. Add some Cool Whip and WOW. My father-in-law ate it for breakfast too!

SUPERB!!!!!!! I added cardamom, vanilla extract and rum in the pumpkin mixture. In addition, I substituted light brown sugar for the white. I also took the advice of another review and added cinnamon in the yellow cake mix and a stick of butter (a little much)With a nice cup coffee it is a great breakfast treat..HMMM

Reading some of these reviews, is baffling. I have made this several times, and it is easy and very good. The spice cake is my favorite, but the yellow is also good. A good cup of coffee is a must.

This was very tasty! I followed the recipe exactly and I loved it. Only complaint was from my fiance who said the topping was a little salty and he would have rather had pecans instead of walnuts. I will use unsalted butter next time and maybe do half the pan in pecans and the other in walnuts (i liked the walnuts). Other than that I loved this recipe. I will be sure to make this again.

MUCH better than pumpkin pie. Thanks a lot for the yummy recipe!

I ended up eating almost all of it, but it wasn't great. I won't make this again. I did not care for the cake topping at all and the consistency was a little off for me.

This is an extremely easy dessert, and so yummy. It is very sweet...but delicious. I served it with vanilla ice cream as suggested, and my family loved it! I use 3/4 of a box of Spice Cake mix in place of the yellow mix. mmmm.
