A delightful and easy Pumpkin Gooey Butter Cake with a creamy, gooey topping and warm pumpkin spice flavor.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box (15.25 ounces) yellow cake mix
  • 1 cup (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 cup (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
  • 4 cups powdered sugar
