• 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
• 1 (15 oz) can pumpkin puree
• 3 eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (or a mix of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves)

• ½ cup unsalted butter, melted

🧰 Tools You’ll Need

🍰 Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2: Make the Cake Base

In a mixing bowl, combine the spice cake mix, 3 eggs, oil, and water. Mix until smooth, then pour into the prepared pan, spreading evenly to form the base layer.

Step 3: Prepare the Gooey Pumpkin Layer

In another bowl, beat together the cream cheese and melted butter until smooth. Add pumpkin puree, eggs, vanilla, and pumpkin pie spice. Gradually beat in powdered sugar until creamy and thick.

Step 4: Assemble

Pour the pumpkin-cream cheese mixture over the cake base, spreading it evenly.

Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly gooey. (That’s the magic!)
