Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Spray cookie sheets lightly with vegetable spray (Pam).
- In a large bowl, mix together the cake mix and pumpkin with a fork or mixer until well blended; stir in nuts or raisins, if desired.
- Drop by large rounded spoonfuls onto the cookie sheet; they don't flatten out much so however you place them on the sheet is pretty much how they'll look after baking.
- Bake for 8 to 15 minutes, depending on the size of your cookies.
- Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for up to 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Frost, if desired.
- How many cookies you get depends on how large you make them of course - just increase your baking time if making larger cookies (it's truly difficult to burn these, but they will get crispier & less moist); Mine, made with a medium size cookie scoop, take 13-15 minutes to bake and yield about 3 dozen.

Tips:
- Choose the right cake mix: Any boxed cake mix can be used to make a pumpkin cake, but some flavors pair better with pumpkin than others. For example, chocolate cake mix and spice cake mix are both good choices. You can also use a white cake mix, but you may want to add some extra spices, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger, to give the cake more flavor.
- Use canned pumpkin puree: Fresh pumpkin can be used in pumpkin cake, but it is much easier to use canned pumpkin puree. Canned pumpkin puree is already cooked and mashed, so it is easy to incorporate into the cake batter. Be sure to use pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling.
- Add some spices: Pumpkin cake is traditionally flavored with spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. You can use a pumpkin pie spice mix, or you can add your own spices to taste. Be careful not to add too many spices, or the cake will be overpowering.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cake tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake according to the package instructions: The baking time for pumpkin cake will vary depending on the cake mix that you use. Be sure to follow the instructions on the package.
Conclusion:
Pumpkin cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for fall. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a moist and flavorful cake that is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give pumpkin cake a try. You won't be disappointed!
