Magnificent Pumpkin Magic Cake
Magnificent Pumpkin Magic Cake is one easy cake recipe that's sure to have you believing in magic after just a single bite. Pumpkin puree and yellow cake mix, among other ingredients, combine to create this moist and delicious cake. It's called a "magic cake" because, while baking, the ingredients in the cake separate to create two beautiful layers of goodness. Topped with a creamy frosting, this cake is practically unstoppable, not to mention undeniable. It's the perfect dessert for fall, although it tastes great all year long.

I haven't made a magic cake, either, but this one looks like the perfect fall dessert! With fall starting this week, I am looking at pumpkin and apple recipes, trying to decide which one to make first. This is the winner. It looks delicious and pretty and so fascinating when you read the steps of the recipe. How does it turn out like that?

This looks so yummy. I love magic cakes, but I've never made one either! Maybe this season.
