1 box chocolate cake mix
1 can pumpkin
Mix together. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes. Why did I not have this recipe sooner?!

I think it was an 18 ounce mix, whatever they had at Aldi (my favorite place to shop these days with my limited budget!). I am certain you could use spice, that would probably be delicious! The chocolate ones trunes out really moist and I can't believe only 2 ingredeints!

Paula, yes spice cake mix works well also, i have made this while camping in the dutch oven with sliced apples, a spice cake mix and a can of diet soda. Was delicious warm when it was cold in the fall. Never thought of making it with cupcakes! :)

15 oz can of pumpkin. Works with all cake, muffin and brownie mixes. It will color lighter mixes, like blueberry muffin mix for instance orange. But, they still come out great, and we love it that way. At first it will seem like it's not wet enough but keep combining the mix with the pumpkin and it will work. Every if it seems real dry at first. The brownies come out more cake like but you save a ton of calories in eggs, and oil, and you add fiber!

I made the cupcakes today. They are yummy. Now if my other half likes them, we have a winner for the whole household.
I was thinking for special occasions that adding some mini chips to the batter would be good, although the cupcakes are already rich in flavor!

My mom adds mini chocolate chips and likes them that way, but like you said Kate, they are already so rich I don;t know how much more I could add! Although now that just got me thinking...what about a cream cheese middle? That would be soooo good with these! Will have to experiment this weekend!

I am so glad the ladies who have tried these are enjoying them! They have just a bit of an added flavor and great texture. I love the bundt pan idea, thanks Anglea!

Yup. Big hit. Wouldn't tell anyone the secret ingredient until they tried one first. Went over well with the adult kids who are all trying to eat better! Thanks again. This is a recipe we will be keeping for sure. =)

Oh all the times I needed to bake and had no oil or eggs on hand I could have used this! I always have canned pumpkin on hand. Can't wait to try this!

I totally found this recipe a few weeks ago, I made it for breakfast and my family LOVED it! Plus its amazing with coffee. I agree, why don't people find out about these easy peasy recipes sooner?!

I admit, I was one that bought an overabundance of pumpkin when there was supposed to be a shortage this year. So I am still using some up. Haha!

I have used a similar recipe for pumpkin cookies. Just use 2 boxes spice cake mix, 1 large can pumpkin and 1 pkg. chocolate chips. Simple and delicious!
