Make this better...

HeatherCanDoIt

A co-worker told me to try a super simple recipe that she loves, I did and I like it but it could use something else. It is a low fat Devils food cake mix and a large can of pumpkin, mixed, put into a Pam sprayed muffin tin and baked for 20 min at 400. That is it.
It is good, but a bit bland, if it is going to be a treat for the kids and I, what could I do to make it a bit more exciting? and keep it heathier? Or do you have a recipe to suggest that is that simple??
I don't enjoy to cook or bake so simple is best!!

weird idea- you can top it with fruit and vanilla yogurt... sounds good in theory

Put some cinnamon and vanilla extract in the mix. I do that with all my cake mixes anyway, just because if you're using a store bought cake mix, sometimes it needs that added oomph. Or you could even use pumpkin pie spice.

maybe a little cinnamon (burns calories!) or nutmeg.....

You could add walnuts or pecans.

Add some cinnamon to the mix before baking, and then try topping individual pieces with natural applesauce when serving.

Smart, that would be good!

Hey just wanted you to know that that recipe works for the spice cake box and any of the other mixes in that line. I really like the spice cake with the pumpkin, as it has the spices in it.

I was going to suggest walnuts and cinnamon, but people beat me to it :P
