Pumpkin Butter Cake is a quick and easy pumpkin dessert, made from a cake mix, but with real pumpkin puree and warm spices. It’s one of my favorite easy fall desserts!

Now look at me getting all fancy with the photography and cute little logo!

There is a reason for that, and I wish it was because I wanted it to look like images from the cool kids on the block. Well, I do want it to look great, but that is beside the point. This is to thwart photo theft, which has once again struck on my site.  I am really not sure why either, as I am by NO means a great photographer. I took this photo with my iPhone.

Anyway, back to the pumpkin butter cake recipe.

This cake has been made 20 different ways, on 200 different sites. Each recipe varies a bit from the other, but for the most part, they are all the same.  It’s hard to stand out in a sea of pumpkin posts, but I think mine is just a bit different. ????

Besides it being an easy and OH so delicious cake, one of the things I like about this recipe is that it uses cake mix as the crust base. I do this a lot with chocolate cake recipes, then I top them with cookie dough. Now that is a sinful dessert!

Pumpkin Butter Cake

My favorite pumpkin butter cake recipes come from Mostly Homemade Mom, Paula Deen, Taste of Home and My Baking Addiction, but I hope you try this one.  It is a blend of many of my favorites but with a bit of extra spice added to make it pop.

Here’s the pumpkin butter cake recipe. Enjoy!

    I LOVE pumpkin and I have two baking pumpkins ready to go for this recipe. I also love that you are a foodie blogger that admits to iPhone photos on her blog. Me too, my friend, me too.

    Heather, I hope your efforts thwart the thieves, but with cake that looks this good, it'll be hard to keep anyone away. It makes me mad to hear about something like that! (The photos, not the cake!) Love your crust idea and also how "light" the cake looks.
