The crunchy, sweet topping makes this simple pumpkin snack cake taste extra special. If you prefer a sweeter cake, omit the topping and spread with your favorite frosting instead. -Steven Schend, Grand Rapids, Michigan

This cake was a disaster! I followed the recipe exactly, but the cake turned out dry and crumbly. The frosting was also too runny. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.
