This beautiful layered cake has a creamy filling with a mild pumpkin flavor and a little spice. It's quick and always turns out so well. The nuts and caramel topping add a nice finishing touch, but you could also try other toppings as a variation. —Trixie Fisher, Piqua, Ohio

Very easy to make and tastes phenomenal! Only thing I changed was that I eased up on the pumpkin paste for the icing.

This pumpkin torte is absolutely scrumptious! I made it for Thanksgiving and everyone raved about it and asked for the recipe. It was very easy to make and I will definitely be making this again.

<p>I followed this recipe with the exception of using vegetable oil because i didn't have canola oil and cool whip. This cake was awesome!!! I made it for Thanksgiving and it was a big hit! The pumkin with the carmel was a great combination. I would defintely recommend using the pecans to top. Would make this over and over again.</p>

Don't be afraid to try this one. A big hit at Thanksgiving. This one is in my recipe box as a new favorite. One guest carried it around for all to see before it was cut. It is so easy to make and goes quickly. Don't expect to have left overs!
