Thanksgiving Dessert – Pumpkin Crunch Cake Recipe

I was sent some great bakeware and utensils from Good Cook for the Thanksgiving cooking and baking season. To get you warmed up and in the mood for some pumpkin cooking, I have 2 pumpkin baking projects that I made for you to enjoy.

PEANUT BUTTER & PUMPKIN DOGGIE TREATS Recipe https://twoclassychics.com

The first one is the PEANUT BUTTER & PUMPKIN DOGGIE TREATS Recipe: that we featured a few weeks ago. The recipe is easy to make and while I did not have a dog bone cookie cutter, I did find the perfect size cutter in my drawer that is just right for a quick treat for Louie! He Loves These!  The Good Cook Pumpkin Scoop (available at Walmart) and the awesome Good Cook Bakeware made these a cinch to make.  The bakeware is heavy duty and bakes like a dream! Plus clean up is a snap! If you have a dog, you should give this healthy dog treat recipe a try.

I wanted to make a cake for my second recipe so I could use one of the nice Good Cook baking pans. They make baking super easy to do! This recipe is one that I found on Cooks.com. I only had Pumpkin Pie Mix in the cupboard and I wanted to use that instead of straight pumpkin. This recipe is super simple and whips up in a flash. Plus you probably have the ingredients in your pantry, just like I did.  It is sweet and so delicious.  It might be even better than pumpkin pie!  I added the strusel like topping that was extra on the bottom to the top of the slice and it was fabulous! Give it a try!

    Good cooks makes great utensils for baking because they last, are heavy duty yet easy to clean.
    This cake recipe looks very good and seems quite easy to make. We don’t have a dog , but I shall remember this dog treat recipe for the future.

  2. My Odin LOVES anything I make (OK he IS a dog and not picky) but the cake looks good and would be good for him. I hope to see you at the partty it sounds fun!!

    My dog and I are both excited! I’m sure you doggie didn’t mind at all that you didn’t have a dog bone cutter. 🙂 These recipes sound great. I was just talking with my daughter today about dogs liking peanut butter, and we know our Missy loves pumpkin. We’ve put it on her food before right out of the can.

    Good Cooks makes some wonderful products. They have many items useful in cooking, often in fun colors and well made. This is a wonderful twitter party idea!

  4. The Pumpkin Crunch Cake looks amazing. I’m getting hungry just thinking about it.

  5. LOVE this cake. And pretty much any recipe that uses that canned Pumpkin Pie Mix. A nice change from pumpkin pie for thanksgiving. – Thanks!

  6. How fun–a recipe for the dog and a recipe for the people. I’ve been making a lot of apple cakes and was thinking it’s about time for a pumpkin cake. Thanks for the ideas. And I’m really looking forward to the Cook Cook Twitter chat!
