Pumpkin Spice Cake

This cake was an unexpected delight! I made it from a couple of things I had in my cupboards, hoping that it would turn out well. It was better than expected! I adapted this recipe from this Skip to my Lou recipe.  This can be made as cupcakes, or as cake. Choose your preference.

Cake Ingredients

• spice cake mix
• 1 can pumpkin
• 3 eggs

Topping Ingredients

• 1/2 c flour
• 1/2 c brown sugar
• 1/4 c butter (I used a little more, since it was a little dry)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 360 degrees.
2. Mix cake ingredients (I used a hand mixer). 
3. Prep your cake batter (in pan or cupcake tins).
4. If you're adding streusel topping, do so before putting it in the oven.
5. Cook until you get a clean knife or toothpick from the center.
• Cupcakes: approx. 15-18 min
• 8x8 Cake: approx. 45-60 min (mine took 60)
• 9x13 Cake: approx 25-30 min

Notes

If you prefer cream cheese frosting, you can add that after baking.

**Could be made gluten free with gluten free cake mix.
