One of my wife's co-workers made this for a holiday party and she loved it so much that she got a copy of the recipe to make at home. Since I use Food.com to consolidate all of my dishes (makes shopping so much easier) it became my task to track down the original recipe and transfer it here. I found the original at http://sweettreatsmore.com/2011/11/pumpkin-lust-cake/ so credit to them.

Time 4h10m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 ¼ cups chopped pecans, divided
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup butter, softened
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
¾ cup confectioners' sugar
2 (8 ounce) containers whipped topping (such as Cool Whip®), divided
1 ½ cups canned pumpkin
1 ½ cups milk
½ cup brown sugar
2 (3 ounce) packages instant vanilla pudding mix
1 ¾ teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 pinch ground cinnamon, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Tips for Baking Pumpkin Lust Cake:

  • Use Fresh Pumpkin: Fresh pumpkin purée gives the cake a more intense pumpkin flavor compared to canned pumpkin.
  • Cream Butter and Sugar Thoroughly: Creaming the butter and sugar until light and fluffy helps incorporate air into the mixture, resulting in a lighter and airier cake.
  • Add Eggs One at a Time: Gradually adding the eggs one at a time ensures that they are well incorporated and prevents the batter from curdling.
  • Mix Dry Ingredients Separately: Mixing the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, spices) in a separate bowl before adding them to the wet ingredients helps ensure even distribution and prevents overmixing.
  • Do Not Overmix: Overmixing the batter can lead to a tough, dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a Bundt Pan: A Bundt pan creates a beautiful, fluted design on the cake and allows for even baking.
  • Cool Cake Completely Before Glazing: Allow the cake to cool completely before pouring the glaze over it. This prevents the glaze from seeping into the cake and making it soggy.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin Lust Cake is a delicious and indulgent fall treat that is perfect for any occasion. The moist, flavorful cake and creamy glaze are sure to satisfy any sweet tooth. Follow these tips to achieve the best results and enjoy a truly special dessert.
