1Package Yellow Cake Mix or Gluten Free Yellow Cake Mix
1CupMelted Butter
1CupChopped NutsOptional
Topping:
212ozContainers of Whipped Cream Cheese Frosting
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350*.
Add the pumpkin, eggs, milk, sugar, and spices to a stand mixer, mixing well. Next, mix in the cake mix and butter. If you choose to use nuts, mix those in at this point as well.
Pour the mix into 2 greased 9inch round cake pans.
Bake for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean.
Once baked, let them cool completely.
Carefully remove and release them from the pan, once they are fully cooled.
When cooled, add a thin layer of frosting on top of one cake, then place the other cake on top of the icing making a 2 layer cake.
Use a Wilton 1M tip and decorators bag to frost the cake, filling the bag with the Cream Cheese Frosting. I would advise frosting just the top portion otherwise it makes it too sweet. Think of it as a crumb coat.
Serve immediately or serve chilled.
Notes
