If you are torn about which desserts to serve during the “almost-here” holiday season, I have a great one for you today. It’s pumpkin pie cake. The base is cake like, and the top is like pumpkin pie. It’s two tastes in one. If you have family or friends who are cake lovers, they will be crazy about this dessert. Ditto for the pie lovers. I have had this recipe in my file for years. I got it from my mother, and who knows where she got it and how long she had it before I snatched it away. This is an easy dessert to make. Y’all can thank me later.

This recipe is even better served with a dollop of whipped cream, a side of vanilla ice cream, or this cinnamon ice cream. For more of our pumpkin recipes, go here, here, here, here, and here.
