1 can (15 ounces) solid-pack pumpkin |
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
Directions:
1. Set aside 1/2 cup cake mix for filling. In a small bowl, combine the oil, 1 egg and remaining cake mix. Press into a greased 13x9-in. baking pan. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup walnuts.
2. In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin, milk, vanilla, salt, cinnamon, reserved cake mix and remaining eggs. Pour over crust; sprinkle with remaining walnuts.
