Empty the contents of the boxed cake mix and
pumpkin puree into a large bowl. Using a hand-
mixer or stand mixer beat until well
incorporated. The batter will be very thick,
but will come together nicely.
Pour batter into a greased 7 x 11 X 2 pan. This
is the small, rectangular-sized pan from your
Pyrex set. You know, the set you had to have
when you got married and rarely ever used all
the pieces. Finally, you have a use for it.
Bake at 350 degrees for 28 minutes or until a
toothpick inserted in the center comes out
clean. Do not overbake.
Let cool for 5-10 minutes in the pan, then flip
onto a platter.
Make the glaze while you're waiting.
Combine powdered sugar, apple cider and pumpkin
pie spice. Glaze should be thick but pourable.
Add more sugar or cider if needed. Pour over
the cake while still warm. Reserve some to pour
over each slice when served.
Serve warm or room temperature.
