Pumpkin Junk

I got this from a friend a long time ago and it has become a family favorite  Thanksgiving dessert. It is very simple and oh so yummy served warm with whipped cream.

1 15 oz. can canned pumpkin

1 12 oz. can evaporated milk

3 eggs

1 cup sugar

4 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice

1 package yellow cake mix

chopped pecans (optional)

3/4 - 1 Cup butter melted

In large bowl combine pumpkin, milk, eggs, sugar and pumpkin pie spice.   Transfer to greased 13x9x2 inch pan.  Sprinkle with dry cake mix and drizzle with butter.  Top with pecans.

Bake @ 350 degrees for 1 hour or until toothpick comes out clean. 

Top with Ice Cream or Whipped Cream
