  If you have the ingredients, you can make your own. This is the recipe I have bookmarked –

  In a small bowl,
  Add 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon.
  Add 1/4 teaspoon of ground ginger.
  Add 1/8 teaspoon of ground allspice or ground cloves.
  Add 1/8 teaspoon of ground nutmeg.
  Stir to blend.
  Makes 1 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice.

  Cass, are you shopping at a smaller Walmart that doesn’t have a full grocery section? Because if not, they should have it. That is an item that is carried year round at the store I work at. They should also have a “seasonal baking section” and it should be therea also.

  The recipe only calls for SPICE Cake Mix. This cake mix is literally at every grocery store

  I have used yellow cake mix before and it’s very good!

   Would this work using a can or two of pumpkin pie filling instead of making the purée yourself? I’m all about ease when it onlinees to dump cake! 🙂

  Recipes call for 15 oz can of puree… I think you can purchase either pumpkin pie mix (that has sugar added) or pumpkin puree in a can. You want just the canned puree pumpkin as opposed to pumpkin pie mix.

   Two questions please:

   What brand of spice cake do people like best? I used one in the past and it was too heavy on on one spice and I now cant remember which one was the offender. Betty? Duncan?? The Doughboy???

   Also what is the ‘goo’ factor on this recipe? Is it gooey or just moist? LOL. :-)I ask because I was all set to make a pumpkin dump cake last year and sis told me all the dump cakes she had tasted were so gooey it seemed raw. Many thanks~

  I used Duncan because it was on sale and we liked it. You coukd also do yellow. Most tecipes call for the larger can of pumpkin which has more of a goo factor. This one is using the smaller can. I like it better, and i like to nake sure the outsides are nice and brown in the oven. Thanks!

  I have only used a yellow cake mix. I have even used a gluten free yellow cake mix and either way it is wonderful. I simply can not have this in my house because it is so good I eat it!

  Chances are your sister is eating undercooked dump cakes. Lots of people make the mistake of pulling it from the oven as soon as it looks done. With the dump cakes, you kind of have to leave them in until they look like they’re starting to get overcooked because the top is drier than the bottom. They’re generally not “pretty” cakes because of this–but some whipped cream can usually fix that 😉

   You can make this in the crockpot, do it on high for about 3 hours. Less time if you want it gooier and additional time if you want it more cake-like. On Thanksgiving my oven is precious real estate, so being able to skirt that is awesome!

  Thanks for the suggestion. My class made this last week and loved it- so we are making it again this week. The crockpot worked perfectly

   If you make your own whipped cream, I suggest TAZO Chai Latte concentrate. It will sweeten and flavor your cream.
   Another suggestions for added crunch- crushed ginger snap cookies!

    They had this at Southern Season in Richmond but baked in a pumpkin! The employee used the bottom half of a carving pumpkin and cleaned out seeds and stringy stuff. Then she baked the ingredients in the pumpkin for the first hour at 350 and 2nd hour at 275. It was so yummy.

    Lina, how do you think it would taste using a gingerbread cake mix?

    Thank you Lina! You are the best! Adding a newer onlinement! I made loads of dump cakes all the time for my neighbor’s senior center before Covid. This is a great holiday version, everyone loved. FYI- they freeze well. I also make them in aluminum loaf pans to give out individually for people to take home.. The same ingredients make 3 loaf pans. I have used Lina’s pumpkin spice mix so I don’t have to buy a large jar. It is on the site here if you search for it. Another favorite is “black forest” with cherry pie filling and dark chocolate or devils food cake mix.
