Happy Happy Tuesday everybody!!! Sometimes you come across recipes that are so simple & easy to make yet so delicious you wonder why in the world you didn’t think of them yourself. Ladies & gentleman, this is one of those recipes.
I’ve seen a lot of custardy kind of cake stuff around but most involved a billion a whole lot of egg whites that need to be room temperature and whipped and sung to sleep at night added in a specific order etc. Y’all, I don’t know about you guys, but I just do not have that kind of time on my hands. I want easy, decadent and super delicious, and trust me this Easy Pumpkin Pie Cake embodies all of those wonderful adjectives.
Honestly the hardest thing to do was waiting for this bad boy to cool down enough so I could slap on the frosting and start devouring it. Speaking of frosting, y’all are totally welcome to buy a pre-made frosting from the store if you’re really in a time crunch, but I most definitely recommend you make this cinnamon cream cheese frosting, which BTW I can take credit for hehe.
It’s the perfect amount of sweetness with the tanginess of the cream cheese, and of course the star of the show, cinnamon, yummy y’all. This is a definite crowd pleaser, with the top part being the texture of a moist cake and the bottom part being all pumpkin pie-ish, OMG I’m drooling at the thought of this delightful treat. I hope you get a chance to make this incredible dessert soon, are having a wonderful day and thank you so much for stopping by!

Hey Sheila! I think you could totally use a bundt pan for this, but it will probably need to cook longer so just keep an eye on it 🙂
