Ingredients

  • 1 box of spice cake mix (any brand you like)
  • 1 can (15 ounces) of pure pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • Optional: a dollop of whipped cream, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence
Instructions

Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C)
Mix 'Em Up: In a large mixing bowl, combine the spice cake mix and the can of pumpkin puree. That's right—just those two ingredients! No eggs, no oil, no fuss. 
Mix it all together until everything is well incorporated. You'll be amazed at how the pumpkin puree magically transforms the cake mix into a glorious pumpkin batter.
Bake It: Pour your batter into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Spread it out evenly because we want our cake to be as lazy as we are. Pop that dish into the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool and Serve: Once your Two-Ingredient Pumpkin Cake is done baking, let it cool for a bit. While cooling you can make a cup of coffee to enjoy with your cake. 
When it's cool enough, slice it up and serve it with a dollop of whipped cream, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or even a scoop of vanilla ice cream if you're feeling fancy.
Tips
  • This cake is pretty darn good on its own, but you can get creative! Try adding chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or a drizzle of caramel sauce for some extra pizzazz.
