PUMPKIN PATCH CAKE - CUTE!

Steps:

• For this cake, you stack two Bundt cakes, making sure that the flat sides are sandwiched together and the ridges are aligned. Orange buttercream frosting and a cupcake 'stem' are the finishing touches.
• To make the cakes and stem: Prepare first recipe cake batter. Scoop 1/2 cup batter in standard-sized muffin tin; pour remaining batter into greased and floured 12-cup Bundt pan. Bake both on middle rack in 350-degree oven until toothpick inserted in center of each comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes for cupcake and 45 to 55 minutes for Bundt cake.
• Cool cupcake in pan 5 minutes, then turn out onto rack. Cool Bundt cake in pan 30 minutes, then turn out onto rack. Repeat with second recipe of cake batter. Let both cupcakes and both cakes cool completely.
• To assemble and frost the pumpkin: Place 1/2 cup frosting in bowl and stir in two drops green food coloring to make frosting for stem. Stir two drops each red and yellow food coloring into remaining frosting, adding more until desired orange color is achieved. Use bread knife to level off domed top of cupcakes and even out bottoms of Bundt cakes. Assemble and frost.
• After placing one Bundt cake flat side up on a cake platter and covering the flat side with 1 cup orange frosting, place the second Bundt cake flat side down on top of the frosting, making sure the ridges on both cakes align. Then place one cupcake cut side up in the hole of the Bundt cake and spread 1 tablespoon orange frosting over the top of the cupcake.
• Using a cake spatula, cover the entire cake with orange frosting.
• Run the back of a small spoon up the sides of the orange frosting every few inches to create pumpkin "creases.".

PUMPKIN SPICE POKE CAKE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the poke cake: Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease a 9 x 13-inch glass baking dish with nonstick spray.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the cake mix, eggs, oil, milk, 8 ounces of pumpkin purée, and 1 tablespoon of pumpkin spice blend until well combined. Pour the cake batter into the prepared baking dish.
• Bake the cake for 40-45 minutes, rotating 180° and covering with aluminum foil halfway (to keep the top of the cake soft) until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
• While the cake is baking, make the filling: In a blender or food processor, combine the cream cheese, remaining 7 ounces of pumpkin purée, the sweetened condensed milk, 1 tablespoon of pumpkin spice blend, and the salt. Blend until completely smooth.
• Using the end of a wooden spoon, poke about 16 holes in the cake, spacing evenly. Pour the filling over the warm cake and let it settle and absorb, shaking the baking dish as needed to encourage the filling to seep down. Let the cake cool completely, about 1 hour. (It is okay if some of the filling remains on top of the cake, it will create a layer between the cake and frosting.)
• While the cake cools, make the frosting: in a medium pot, gently melt 10 tablespoons of butter over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the milk solids separate from the fat and sink to the bottom of the pot, 4-5 minutes. Once the milk solids begin to brown and smell nutty, swirl the pan a few times to distribute the heat and prevent burning. Remove the pot from the heat and strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl. Let cool completely, but not to the point of hardening, about 40 minutes. If the brown butter does harden, microwave in 10-second intervals until just softened, but not warmed.
• Add the remaining ¾ cup butter to the bowl with the cooled brown butter and use a hand mixer on medium speed to whip until light and fluffy, 1-2 minutes. Sift in the powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the heavy cream, vanilla, and slt and whip until incorporated and the frosting is light and fluffy.
• Evenly spread the brown butter frosting over the cooled pumpkin cake. Dust the top with the remaining teaspoon of pumpkin spice blend.
• Cut into squares and serve.
• Enjoy!
