    Sure!  But I have to admit that it is one of those "cheating" kind of recipes where you doctor a regular cake mix ... time permitting I would have made something similar from scratch.  Oh well, it turned out great!  The guests enjoyed it a lot.

    Running downstairs to get the resipe ....

    For the cake

     

    1 box spice cake mix (without pudding)

    1 can pumpkin puree

    ? cup vegetable oil

    1 pkg vanilla instant pudding (I used Jello?s limited run pumpkin spice instant pudding)

    3 eggs

    1 tsp cinnamon

    ? cup water

    ? cup chopped pecans

     

    mix on medium for no more than 5 minutes

    350  oven (adjust to 325 if using a bundt pan with a dark color metal surface exterior)

    greased/floured bundt pan (I sugared the pan with powdered sugar instead of flouring it)

    bake 45 min (check at 35 minutes)

    cool in pan 10 min

     

    For the frosting

     

    ? cup butter (softened)

    4 ? 3oz pkgs cream cheese (softened)

    ? cream together these above 2 ingredients

     

    2 cups powdered sugar  ? beat in to the above until smooth

     

    1 tsp cinnamon

    1 tsp vanilla extract

    ? stir in to the above

     

    Add milk to thin it if you want to drizzle the frosting or keep it thick to frost with a spatula.  I thinned it down to drizzle, placed it in a ziplock and cut off a corner to drizzle it on.  It made a bit extra when thinned down, but I saved it to use as a yummy dip for apples, etc. later.

    If I had to change anything, I might add more nuts next time.  You could use walnuts instead, but I am partial to pecans.  Also ... the cake might be good with a caramel topping, but the cinnamon cream cheese was so so yummy!

    Sadly, I have to report that when we were taking about 1/3 of the cake to my FILs house for a 2nd Thanksgiving dinner I tripped right as I got to the car and the cake server went flying.  We lost the cake to the driveway.  I am still in tears.  Ok, maybe not tears, but I do mourn the loss of the cake.  Waaaahhhh.  Luckily I saved a couple pieces here at home before the tripping disaster.  Big Smile
