Pumpkin Whoopie!

Today was a dear friends birthday.  She and I are both husband-less this week.  So we had them over for lunch in between Conference and Millie made her a delightful pumpkin dessert.  I've decided I'm a huge pumpkin fan!  The next recipe I post will be Pumpkin Soup & then Pumpkin Waffles with Celestial Syrup (well that's what the missionaries called it).

Pumpkin Whoopie

1 (15 oz.) can of pumpkin
3 eggs
1 can evaporated milk
1 c brown sugar
2 t. cinnamon
1/2 t. salt
1/2 t. ginger
1/4 t. nutmeg

1 yellow or white cake mix
1 stick of butter

Mix first 8 ingredients well.  Pour into greased 9x13 pan.  Sprinkle dry cake mix over mixture. Drizzle melted butter over the top of cake mix.  (Optional: Sprinkle 1 c. chopped pecans on top.) Bake @ 350 for 50 minutes.  Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream/topping. 

ENJOY!  Thanks Marc.  :)
