What you do in your house is worth as much as if you did it up in heaven for our Lord God. We should accustom ourselves to think of our position and work as sacred and well-pleasing to God, not on account of the position and work, but on account of the word and faith from which the obedience and the work flow. ~ Martin Luther

Pumpkin Crisp Dessert

I love this recipe! It's a piece of cake to put together and so delicious! I love the crispy crumb topping. My husbands eyes' lit up when I suggested I make it for dessert last night!

1 box yellow cake mix
1/2 c. butter, melted
3 eggs
1 can (30 oz) canned pumpkin
1 can (5 oz) evaporated milk
pumpkin pie spice (to taste)
1/2 sugar
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 t. ground cinnamon

In a large mixing bowl, combine cake mix, butter, and one egg until crumbly. Set aside 2/3 cup of mixture for topping. Press remaining crumb mixture into a greased 13x9 pan. In a mixing bowl, beat remaining eggs. Add pie mix and milk;pour over crust. (I also sprinkle a bit of sugar and pumpkin pie spice in the mixture though the recipe doesn't call for it...)

Combine remaining ingredients with the reserved crumb mixture; sprinkle over pumpkin layer. Bake at 350 for 45-50 minutes or until top is golden brown. Cool on wire rack for 1 hour then refridgerate for two hours or until chilled before cutting. Yield: 12-15 servings
