This is the
best of several worlds! Scrumptious cake
that is a little bit gooey and has the perfect crunch. Add that to the
combination of pumpkin, brown sugar, and warm spices and you have a dessert
that will leave everyone asking for more.
We loved it! It was super easy to
make - and just as easy to eat! Trust me - you’re going to love this one.
