I made this for my family who are British and it was a huge hit. They were all certain they would not like pumpkin in a dessert but they were proved wrong. It is a keeper for us. I like it better than pumpkin pie. It is more interesting and not bland at all. Thank you!

I made this tonight as a test run for Thanksgiving. Outstanding!!! It really was too easy, yet so delicious. I was expecting this to be kind of like a pumpkin pie, but the flavor of the nuts, cake & pumpkin all combined to make it a really interesting & irresistible dessert for the Holidays.I used the yellow cake mix & walnuts,& also used pumpkin pie spice.THANKS!!
