Crunchy-Topped Spice Cake Recipe

Rating 4

"The recipe for this delicious spice cake originally called for cooking and mashing a pumpkin and making the cake from scratch," writes Laurine Lockwood of McGregor, Minnesota. "With my large family, I don't have time for all of that. I much prefer this easy version!"

This is an all time favorite for me. I like most anything with pumpkin and the combination with the spice cake is wonderful. The cake is moist without being too sweet. Perfect for those who love cake but could do without the icing.
