How to Make Autumn Pumpkin Crisp W Creamy Frosting

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to help lift the crisp out later.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree, 1 cup milk, ¾ cup granulated sugar, 2 large eggs, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  4. Pour the pumpkin mixture into the prepared pan.
  5. Evenly sprinkle 1 box (15.25 ounces) yellow cake mix over the pumpkin mixture.
  6. Distribute ½ cup chopped pecans or walnuts evenly over the cake mix.
  7. Melt ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter and drizzle evenly over the nuts.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is set.
  9. Let cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, lift the crisp out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang.
  10. For the frosting: In a medium bowl, beat together 8 ounces cream cheese (softened), 8 ounces Cool Whip, and 2 cups powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
  11. Frost the cooled crisp and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the frosting to set.
