Time 56m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup pumpkin puree
¾ cup white sugar
½ cup canola oil
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup caramel sauce
1 tablespoon bourbon, divided
1 cup heavy whipping cream
½ cup chopped toasted pecans

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line an 8-inch square cake pan with parchment paper.
  • Beat pumpkin puree, sugar, oil, eggs, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract together in a bowl.
  • Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt into a bowl. Add to the pumpkin mixture; stir until just combined. Pour into prepared pan; smooth top with a spatula.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes.
  • Combine caramel sauce and 1 1/2 teaspoons bourbon in a saucepan over low heat; warm through, about 2 minutes. Poke holes evenly over the surface of the cake using a chopstick. Reserve 1 teaspoon of the caramel-bourbon mixture; pour remaining mixture over the cake. Place on cooling rack.
  • Beat cream and remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons bourbon in a bowl using an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Spoon whipped cream on cake; scatter pecans and drizzle reserved caramel sauce on top.

This cake was a little too sweet for me, but I still enjoyed it. I would probably reduce the amount of sugar in the cake batter next time.

This cake was amazing! I made it for my husband's birthday and he loved it. The cake was moist and flavorful, and the caramel sauce was the perfect topping.

This cake was a total disaster! The caramel sauce was too runny and the cake itself was dry and crumbly. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I'm not a huge fan of pumpkin desserts, but this cake was surprisingly good! The caramel and bourbon flavors really complemented the pumpkin. I would definitely make this again.

This pumpkin caramel bourbon poke cake was a hit at my Thanksgiving gathering! The flavors were perfectly balanced and the cake was moist and delicious. I will definitely be making this again for Christmas.
