Tonight I had every intentions of making a new recipe but I didn't have one of the ingredients so I just made fajitas instead, super easy. Earlier I had been trying to clean the fridge out because tomorrow I'm going to the store and I needed more space. I had some pumpkin that I had used to make a dessert last week so I thought I would just make some pumpkin cookies but then I found some evaporated milk so I didn't want to waste that. My friend Leanna told me about a cookbook her Mom and friends had put together so I bought one from her. It's a pretty big cookbook so I knew there would be something in there. I found this dessert which was perfect :) I knew I loved desserts like this so I was excited. The only bad thing about making this dessert was that it made a bunch and after eating WAY too much this past weekend I wasn't going to have any. Plus it's a hard one to share with neighbours. I did take some over to my neighbour though and let them just dish some out. I did end up having a little though because Hadley didn't want any, it was YUMMY!
1 (16 oz.) can pumpkin
1 (12 oz.) can evaporated milk
3 eggs
1 1/2 c. sugar
4 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
1/2 tsp. salt
1 yellow cake mix
1 c. melted butter (I used margarine)
Whipped topping
Mix together pumpkin, milk, eggs, sugar, pumpkin pie spice and salt. Pour into a 9x13 baking dish/pan. Sprinkle dry cake mix over pumpkin mixture. Evenly drizzle melted butter/margarine over dry cake mix. Bake at 350F for 50-55 minutes or until golden brown. (The recipe I used called for 1 c. of pecans which you add 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time but I didn't think my kids would like those so I didn't add them). Coll completely and serve with whipped topping. Refrigerate any leftovers.
Recipe from "Patchwork of friends quilt club, cookbook 2010"
