Awesome pumpkin dessert! I made it for a family gathering and everyone loved it. It has a nice holiday goodness flavor. I added some extra spices to the pumpkin mixture, including nutmeg and cloves which made it very enjoyable! This will be a classic fall/winter dessert for us.

Good flavor and house smelled GREAT! Baked in 10" springform pan...Added about 1tsp of pumpkin spice, I think it would have been bland without it...baked 30 mins at 350 then 20 more mins at 325. Looked so pretty when I pulled the sides off. Easy too...Thanks for sharing!

FANTASTIC recipe! I made it in a 9x13 pan and it was great. I wish I had whipped cream to put on top of each piece, but I didn't have any. Great recipe!!

Made pretty much as directed except that I halved the white sugar in the recipe and subbed brown sugar for the crumble topping (also reduced to about 1/3 cup). My hubby, who does not care for pumpkin, said it was very good. There were enough flavors going on that he didn't just taste pumpkin. DD loved her "pumpkin pie cake." Thanks for sharing a recipe that the whole family could agree on!

I sent this to work with my husband and after only having it out of his office and in a consummable place for 15 minutes I've already gotten rave reviews and a recipe request. :)

I made this today and it was absolutely wonderful! I did not use the 9x13 but a square pan instead..I wonder if you need to actually roll the crust part out to fit the 9x13? Either way it was delicious and I will definitely make this again. I did put walnuts on the top too! Thank you for the recipe!

I used white cake mix and a 9*13 glass cake pan, it was done perfectly in about 40 minutes. My husband and kids both love this dessert and are already asking me to make it for Thanksgiving which is fine by me, it's easier than pumpkin pie =)

I made this recipe according to my taste and it turned out great. First, I decreased the amount of sugar in the crumb mixture by 1/2 cup, and it still turned out sweet,without being over sweet. I heated the pumpkin mix on low, and stirred in the sugars, salt and used pumpkin pie spice rather than cinnamon and let the flavours blend. I let the mixture cool, before adding the eggs. I made the cake in a springform pan, which allowed for easier serving and presentation. I made the cake the day before, as others had said it tasted better overnight. Before serving, I re-heated the cake in the over, which allowed the crumb topping to crisp up. It tasted great and was a big hit at dinner. Be sure to use a drip pan if using a springform pan, just in case of any leaks.

Used 8 x 11 glass baking dish. Used white cake mix. Used 1 Tbsp. Watkins Pumpkin Pie Spice AND a generous dash of Watkins cinnamon. To get a uniformly lightly browned topping I had to bake about 50 minutes. Now for the taste-test verdict: holy toothache, Batman! This cake is seriously sweet. And I have a sweet tooth famous in these parts--I love cakes and candy, the sweeter the better. The 'crust' and the 'topping' were both too sugary for my liking. I did appreciate the pumpkin pie-like filling though, it wasn't overly sweet and had just enough spice ...yummy. I sampled this straight from the oven and I will give it another taste today now that it's been in the refrigerator, maybe that is why I thought it too sweet? I don't know if I'd try *this* recipe again...but the idea is cool so I will try another variation. My very picky, very anti-sweets husband said it was an amazing dessert...go figure!

This recipes is amazing. I tweeked it some and added a block of cream cheese to the filling and baked it for 1 hour and I added to the crumb topping by mixing it with my Fruit Crisp topping recipe that has chopped walnuts, oats and cinnamon in it. Added 3/4 of a stick of melted butter and a dash of maple syrup. Great recipe!! Definately putting this at the top of the thanksgiving dessert list.

5 stars is an understatement!! The BOMB is an understatement! Even a pumpkin hater would love this! I doubled the recipe so that it would fit into a 10X13 pan. The outside edges were perfectly cooked (left it in for 5 mins longer). The inside was cooked but not as tender and cake like as the outside pieces. Inside had more of a pie type texture. Don't get me wrong it was ALL GOOD!!!. Taking it to church for an Octoberfest....very seasonally appropriate! THANKS FOR THE GREAT RECIPE....will make again and again!

My kids loved this cake. They are great critics when it comes to pumpkin. I was laughing b/c some of my good friends always tell me that I like to make things that are in layers... well, maybe they are right but I can't wait to try this one on them. I did follow the recipe and the only changes I made was to add a little bit of nutmeg and a little ground cloves to the the pumpkin mix and chopped pecans for the crumb topping. Delicious!

I made this tonight with many variations. I had a huuuge craving for pumpkin & hardly any ingredients for anything I wanted to make so I made adjustments & settled on this. First, I didn't have a yellow cake mix so I search for cake mixes from scratch on this site & found one for spice cake that I used and also varied by leavin gout the allspice for lack thereof and replacing it with apple pie spice. I left out the nuts, and also replaced the cinnamon with apple pie spice 7 a bit of ground cloves since I had run out of cinnamon while preparing the spice cake mix. Then, when it came time to make the crumb topping I added graham cracker crumbs and around 1/3 cup oats and a tablespoon or so more butter to keep it crumbly. I baked it in a bundt pan so of course, had to adjust the time, but I must say it was soooo worth it! the only thing that could make it better is perhaps a layer of cream cheese frosting or cool whip and a cup of coffee! delicious!

Love this! Followed the recipe as written, except added a 1/2 tsp of ginger and 1/4 tsp of cloves to the pumpkin filling. Baked in a 9 inch springfrom pan. It definitely needed extra time to bake in that pan, about 15-20 minutes for me. Came out of the pan beautifully and makes for a not only a special, tasty dessert, but also a great presentation. Thank you!

This is a very tasty cake and my husband really enjoyed it. However, next time I will decrease the amount of sugar in the topping and decrease the butter in the crust (my own personal taste). I used the spring-form pan as suggested and it was picture perfect.
