Signs of Fall

Slowly but surely Fall is on its way

Trees are changing colors

The Temperature has dropped -thankfully!

I would say the garden was harvested, but the turtles from the creek at my cantaloupes, and the squirrels at the zucchini.

We are craving pumpkin.

Years ago when I lived in Michigan, I belonged to a German speaking group.

We met once a month and would speak German while eating yummy desserts.

Pumpkin Gooey Cake was one of the recipes shared with me.

Crust

1 box of yellow cake mix

1 stick of butter.

1 egg

mix together and with a fork press into a 9x13 baking pan.

Then in a bowl mix together:

1 15 ounces can of pumpkin

1 teaspoon of cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg

1 8 ounces of cream cheese

4 cups of powder sugar

1 teaspoon of vanilla

1 stick of melted butter

2 eggs

once combined pour over the first layer and bake in the oven for about 50 minutes at 350 degrees.  Should be a little moist.  So seriously yummy!                  

Happy Fall!
