Pumpkin Dessert

Filling:
6 eggs (slightly beaten)
3 cups Libby pumpkin
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ginger
2 cups milk
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon cloves

Topping:
1 box yellow cake mix
1 stick butter (1/2 cup)

Beat together all filling ingredients with mixer. Pour into a 9x13 baking dish. Cut 1/2 cup butter into one box yellow cake mix (I use Duncan Hines deluxe yellow cake mix). Spread lightly this mixture on top of the pumpkin mixture. Sprinkle with chopped nuts (pecans) if desired. Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes or until knife inserted into the middle of the filling comes out clean. Serve warm with whipped cream.

This recipe is like a rich pumpkin pie. I got it from Mrs. Heijermans when we were in candidate school to be missionaries in 1985. We love it and it's very quick and easy to prepare.

Corn Dogs

1/2 cup corn meal
1/2 flour
1 Tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1 Tablespoon butter, melted

Mix all ingredients together and dip hot dogs, rolling to cover completely. Fry in hot oil (375 degrees) until lightly browned. Drain on paper towels and serve with mustard or catsup...or both. ;-D You could cut wooden skewers in half to provide holders to insert in the hot dogs after frying.

Dump Cake

1 20 Ounce Can Crushed Pineapple in syrup, undrained, about 2 1/2 cups
1 16 Ounce Can Cherry Pie Filling
1 Box Yellow or White Cake Mix
1/2 to 1 Cup Chopped Pecans or Walnuts (optional)
1 Stick (1/2 cup) of Butter or Margarine
Whipped Cream or Ice Cream (optional)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Grease a 9 by 13 cake pan and dump undrained pineapple in the bottom of the pan and spread evenly. Cover with pie filling, then sprinkle the dry cake mix over all evenly. If desired sprinkle nuts on top of the cake mix. Cut butter into small pieces and dot the top. DO NOT MIX. Bake at 350 for 50 to 60 minutes. Serve warm or cold by dipping or dumping out with a spoon. Top with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream for a great dessert.
