Ingredients
- 15.25 oz. yellow cake mix (1 box)
- 1 cup melted butter divided
- 4 eggs
- 8 oz. cream cheese
- 15 oz. pumpkin puree
- 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 2 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a 13x9 baking dish with parchment paper.
- In a big bowl, stir together the cake mix, ½ cup melted butter, and 1 egg until it turns into a soft dough.
- Press that dough evenly into the bottom of your baking dish.
- In another bowl, beat together the cream cheese, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla until creamy.
- Add in the pumpkin puree, the remaining ½ cup melted butter, and 3 eggs. Give it a good mix.
- Mix in the powdered sugar until everything is smooth and dreamy.
- Pour that pumpkin mixture over the crust layer.
- Bake for 45 minutes — the center will still have a little jiggle.
- Let it cool completely, then pop it in the fridge for an hour to set.
