Pumpkin Crisp

By -

It's funny - I have been teaching a simple crisp recipe at Tupperware parties for almost 20 years

1 can pie filling
1 box cake mix
1 stick melted butter

Put them in the pan, in that order, and bake at 350 for about 40 minutes.

I saw a friend post this version on the Scrapfreak boards and had to try it! My first thoughts: it is a pumpkin custard with a sweet streusel topping.

YUM!

Here is the recipe -- I served it for Thanksgiving and found that it was sweet with a nice and crunchy top! I served it with French Vanilla Cool Whip...but ice cream would have been good too!

Pumpkin Crisp
1 box yellow cake mix
1 can pumpkin
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 eggs
3 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 can evaporated milk
2 sticks of butter or margarine
chopped nuts

Mix pumpkin, sugar, eggs, pumpkin spice and milk until well blended. Pour into greased 9 x 13 cake pan. Sprinkle dry cake mix over pumpkin mixture. Melt butter and drizzle over cake mix. Sprinkle with nuts.Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes. Great with cool whip.

Some of the "family recipes" are too far out there for even me to try... But this is a pot luck favorite. SUPER Easy and SUPER Easy to make healthier. We choose the middle of the road option, LOL You need:  1 package hot dog buns (8 ct) 1 package hot dogs 2 cups chili (or 1 can) 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese "fixins" That's it! You could do gluten free or whole grain wheat buns, turkey or tofu dogs, vegetarian chili, vegan or light cheese, you get the drift. We do white buns, cut them up and place in the 9x13 pan, like you see here: Then you dice up the hot dogs ...
