Was not flavorful at all. My family did not like it. I will not make it again.

I added pumpkin pie spice to the pumpkin and pudding mixture and used instant pudding instead of cooked. Delicious! It looks like you spent hours on the dessert.

We found this a little dry the first time I made it. Now we don't use all the gingerbread cake and increase the pumpkin and pudding mixture (1.5 times) as well as increasing the whipped topping. Yummy!! Makes a TON - but disappears very quickly! :)
