Pumpkin Pie Cake

Sorry that this is another recipe post. I haven't got pictures of Owen in his way cute Squirt sea turtle (from Finding Nemo) costume. He just won't cooperate for Momma! Hopefully Daddy can help for a second. Owen is a total daddy's boy at this stage. Anyway, on to the recipe.

This recipe is super special to me because it is the only recipe I have from my mom. So, to say the least, it is always a part of our fall celebrations.
