Nutritional data has not been calculated yet.Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!

Excellent and really easy. I added 1/4 teaspoon cinammon, 1/2 finely chopped dried chilli and 1/2 teaspoon cardamon seeds. I live in France the people here absolutely loved it!!!
