Ingredients
- 1 box spiced or yellow cake mix
- 1 can (15 ounces) pumpkin puree
- 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 tub (16 ounces) cool whip, thawed
- 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese
- 1 c. powdered sugar
- Β½ bag Heath Bits or 3 crushed Heath bars or toffee bits
- Caramel Sundae Sauce/Topping
Instructions
Preheat your oven to the temperature mentioned on the cake mix box around 350ΒΊF.
In a mixing bowl combine the pumpkin puree, with the cake mix. Avoid adding any ingredients. The mixture will have a thick consistency.
Spread this mixture evenly onto a greased 9×13-inch pan. Follow the baking instructions provided on the cake mix box for around 23 to 28 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Once baked allow the cake to cool for 10 minutes.
Using the end of a spoon make holes all over the top of the cake.
Pour sweetened condensed milk over the cake ensuring it fills each hole and seeps into every part. Spread it out evenly to guarantee penetration.
For results refrigerate the cake overnight to allow for setting of the milk. Trust me it’ll be worth waiting!
Before serving make a topping by combining Cool Whip, cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
Take out the refrigerated cake. Spread this cool whip mixture generously over its top surface.
Sprinkle Heath bits generously, on top. Drizzle caramel sauce across the cake.
If you have any leftovers cover them up. Store them in your fridge.
