 Pumpkin Cinnamon Roll Cake

Raise your hand if you like pumpkin! Cinnamon? All the warm fall flavors?

Me too!

I modeled this recipe after one of my all-time favorite, drool-worthy dessert recipes, the Honey Bun Cake. I wanted a fall-ish flavor though and decided pumpkin would be perfect. It was.

This is a dessert every pumpkin lover should try!

I popped this Pumpkin Cinnamon Roll Cake in the oven to bake as I prepared a sandwich. Both items were for tailgating. I needed everything to be quick and easy since I procrastinated making them the day before.

The beauty of this cake is that it starts with a cake mix. It’s a fun alternative to traditional cinnamon rolls. Furthermore, I know some people don’t like to use cake mixes. However, I find in some situations, like this, it’s perfectly acceptable. No judgment from me. I just like when people cook regardless.

I wish I had added pecans between the pumpkin layer and the cinnamon layer, but that just gives me an excuse to make it again.
