Two-Ingredient Pumpkin Cake with Apple Cider Glaze

[Guest guest]

I have one baking in the oven right now. I'm excited to see how it

turns out. It's very easy to make.

 

Two-Ingredient Pumpkin Cake with Apple Cider Glaze

 

For the Cake:

1 Yellow Cake Mix (or any cake mix, supposedly. I'm trying a cherry

chip one)

1 15 ounce can of pumpkin puree

 

For the Glaze:

1-1/2 cups powdered sugar

3 Tablespoons apple cider

3/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

 

Empty the contents of the boxed cake mix and pumpkin puree into a

large bowl. Using a hand-mixer or stand mixer beat until well

incorporated. The batter will be very thick, but will come together

nicely.

 

Pour batter into a greased 7 x 11 X 2 pan. This is the small,

rectangular-sized pan from your Pyrex set. You know, the set you had

to have when you got married and rarely ever used all the pieces.

Finally, you have a use for it.

 

Bake at 350 degrees for 28 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in

the center comes out clean. Do not overbake.

 

Let cool for 5-10 minutes in the pan, then flip onto a platter.

 

Make the glaze while you're waiting.

 

Combine powdered sugar, apple cider and pumpkin pie spice. Glaze

should be thick but pourable. Add more sugar or cider if needed.

Pour over the cake while still warm. Reserve some to pour over each

slice when served.

 

Serve warm or room temperature.
