Pie
1 29-Ounce Can Pumpkin Pie Mix
1 5-Ounce Can Evaporated Milk
3 Eggs, Lightly Beaten
1 Cup Sugar
½ Teaspoon Salt
2 Teaspoons Cinnamon
1 Pillsbury Plus Yellow Cake Mix with Pudding
½ Pound Butter, Melted and Cooled Slightly
11/2 Cup Chopped Pecans
Caramel Sauce
2 Sticks Sweet Butter
2 Cups Light Brown Sugar
1 Cup Heavy Cream
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Line two 9” pans with parchment paper.
Mix together pumpkin, milk, sugar, eggs, salt, and cinnamon.
Pour into pans.
Sprinkle cake mix over the top.
Distribute chopped pecans over cake mix and drizzle melted butter over all.
Bake one hour. Chill.
Invert and cut into wedges.
Top with a dollop of whipped cream and drizzle with caramel sauce.
Caramel Sauce:
Cut butter into pieces and melt it in a small heavy bottomed pan.
Stir in the brown sugar and cream.
Cook over very low heat, stirring constantly, until all is melted and blended. Whisking the sauce helps to bring it together. Serve warm. Refrigerate what is not used and reheat on low heat.
Whipped Cream:
Whip cream in a medium in a bowl. Add sugar and vanilla slowly. Whip into soft peaks. Refrigerate until ready for use.
