Are you feeling the fall vibe yet? You know, since we live in Florida now, it does feel a little different. I’m hopeful that with Halloween on the way and my insistence of making pumpkin recipes that it will kick in for real. This super easy recipe is truly a good start! Slow Cooker Pumpkin Dump Cake anyone? The best part is that it’s made with only 5 ingredients! (Well, at least that’s my favorite part!)
This recipe is very similar to one of my other favorite slow cooker desserts: Death by Chocolate Dump Cake. The ingredients for this are only yellow cake mix, pudding mix, milk, butter and canned pumpkin. Swirl it all together and turn on your trusted slow cooker for about 3 hours. The result is scrumptious!
Ingredients
- Yellow Cake Mix (16 - 18 oz)
- 1 Box Instant Vanilla Pudding Mix (3.9 oz)
- 1 Can of Pumpkin (15 oz)
- 1.5 Cups Milk
- 1 Stick of Butter (melted)
- Recommended: Line slow cooker with parchment paper or a slow cooker line
- Recommended: Drizzle with Caramel Sauce before Serving
Instructions
- Line your slow cooker with parchment paper or liner. Dump the dry cake mix evenly along the bottom of your lined slow cooker. Then, repeat with the vanilla pudding mix and then the canned pumpkin. Pour melted butter evenly over the top of the dry ingredients, repeat process with the milk. Take a spoon and press down any dry mix that isn't wet. Cook on low for 3-4 hours. Cooking time will vary depending on your size. The larger it is, the less cook time will be needed. The cake will be slightly "wet" in the center. This is a good thing, you don't want to overcook it. There are no eggs in this recipe, so wet is good! It's best when the center is cooked just slightly beyond it's original liquid state and the sides are starting to firm up. Enjoy!
To serve, I highly recommend drizzling with caramel. It will truly take this cake over the top. Some vanilla ice cream and whipped topping will make it even more luscious. Nom!
