I remember last year someone posted a recipe that uses Jello’s pumpkin pudding flavor.  Couldn’t find any then but grabbed some the other day.  Now I can’t find the recipe.  Could someone point me in the right direction.  Many thanks.

    If you go to http://www.kraftrecipes.com and type Triple layer Pumpkin Spice Pie in the search engine you should get a recipe for the most delectable looking pumpkin pie I’ve ever seen.

    Here’s one I saved.  Trying to recall if I made it or not.  Braindead tired at the moment.  Sounds good anyway!  I’m not sure who posted it or where I picked it up.  Sorry to the original poster.  I try but failed this one….
    The original version of this cake is made with chocolate and/or vanilla pudding, and it is deee-licious as well.  But using the pumpkin spice pudding was my mother’s idea and it makes it a perfect holiday dessert this Thanksgiving or Christmas.

    Pumpkin Spice Cake
     
    1 package Duncan Hines Spice Cake Mix (I’ve tried other cake mixes,
    but Duncan Hines works best)
    1 package Jell-o Pumpkin Spice pudding mix (only available in the fall)
    4 large eggs
    1 cup water
    1/3 cup vegetable oil
     
    Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour bundt pan.
     
    Combine cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, water and oil. Beat at medium
    speed for 2 minutes. Pour into bundt pan and bake for 50-60 minutes
    or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Let cake cool
    before frosting. My favorite frosting for this particular cake is cream
    cheese, but buttercream works great too. Even a simple sugar glaze
    would be fine.
     
    Remember, Jell-o Pumpkin Spice pudding is only available now
     in the fall.

    Oh boy, just bought two packages and a dinner coming up on Sunday!

    Rusty, I just made this cake a week or so ago.  Have not been able to find the pumpkin spice pudding mix so just used a vanilla pudding mix and added a teaspoon of pumpkln spice.  I believe Kayce posted this recipe either here or on another forum and she said you could also use a gingerbread puccing mix–if you can find it.   The cake freezes well too.

      Walmart and Krogers carry the pumpkin spice pudding in the jello isle.
      I bought 5 packages last spring when it was reduced to 20 cents a package.
      still have 3 left. My sis n law wants a pumpkin cake made for this weekend.
      My mom loves this cake.
      Yes I have frozen the cake before and take a piece when I have cake and tea.

  • GDewey:

    Thanks so much for the recipes.  I have several boxes so think I will try both.  
     
    I think I’ll frost the Spiced Pumpkin cake with a frosting my aunt used to make.  It uses Jello instant pudding pie mix.  I’ve never made it with the pumpkin flavor but it should be perfect.
     
    The recipe is super easy.
     
    Mix one cup milk with one small packet of jello pudding or pie filling of your choice.  Then fold in 4 cups of Cool Whip.  You have to keep the cake refrigerated but I love that it’s not super sweet and very light.

    Sounds good GDewey! Thanks!  Took the Pumpkin Lust Cake to a gathering last night.  Really good and will be making it again if I can find any more of the pumpkin spice pudding mixes.  Our Walmart didn’ have any….and I need to make Rusty’s cake now to try both the cake and the icing recipes. 

  • GDewey:

    Found the Pumpkin Spice mix at my King Soopers.  They also had Gingerbread flavor also.  I picked up a couple of boxes thinking maybe I’ll try the Lust recipe with them.  LOL
