1 14-1/2-oz. pkg. gingerbread cake mix*
1-1/4 c. water
1 egg
4 c. cold fat-free milk
2 1-oz., each sugar free instant butterscotch pudding mix
1 15-oz. can of solid-pack pumpkin
1 tsp. cinnamon

In a mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, water and egg; mix well. Pour into an ungreased 8-in. square baking pan.

Set aside 1/4 c. crumbs for garnish.

In a bowl, whisk milk and pudding mixes for 2 minutes or until slightly thickened. Let stand for 2 minutes or until soft set. Stir in pumpkin and spices; mix well.

In a trifle bowl or 3-1/2-qt. glass serving bowl. Layer a fourth of the cake crumbs, half of the pumpkin mixture, 1/4th of the crumbs and half of the whipped topping. Repeat layers. Garnish with reserved cake crumbs. Serve immediately or refrigerate
