Step-by-step

  • In a large bowl, mix together the cake mix and pumpkin puree until a smooth batter forms.
  • Pour batter into a greased 9x13 baking dish, and bake at 350 degrees, according to the directions on the cake mix box (approx 23-28 mins).
  • Remove cake from oven and let cool for about 10 minutes after baking.
  • Using the end of a wooden spoon, poke holes all over the top of the cake.
  • Pour the sweetened condensed milk over the cake. This should fill in the holes and soak into the cake.
  • Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Remove cake from refrigerator and spread cool whip over top of cake. Sprinkle on the heath bits, and drizzle caramel over top. (I didnt think the cake needed a lot of caramel at this point so I only used about 1/2 of the jar. I thinned it out first by heating it in the microwave.)
  • Refrigerate for 3-4 hours, or overnight (best).

Tips and Tricks for Success:

  • Don't skimp on the caramel: A generous drizzle of caramel sauce is key to the overall flavor and experience of the cake.
  • Let it chill: Allowing the cake to chill in the refrigerator for several hours (or overnight) is crucial for the flavors to meld together and for the cake to fully absorb the condensed milk.
  • Get creative with toppings: Feel free to experiment with different types of toppings, such as chopped nuts, chocolate shavings, or even fresh berries.
  • Make it your own: This recipe is a great starting point, but feel free to personalize it to your taste. For example, if you prefer a more intense pumpkin flavor, you could add a teaspoon or two of pumpkin pie spice.

This Pumpkin Better Than Sex Cake is more than just a dessert; it’s a celebration of simple ingredients transformed into something truly magical. So gather your ingredients, put on your apron, and prepare to bake a cake that will be talked about for weeks to come. Happy baking!
