Step by Step Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°.
Step 2
Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
Step 3
In a large bowl, mix together the water, pumpkin, eggs, 1 tablespoon vanilla, and pumpkin pie spice, until well combined. Add the cake mix and baking soda; mix until just combined. Pour batter into the pan.
Step 4
In a small bowl, mix together 1/2 cup brown sugar with flour and melted butter. Using your fingers, sprinkle over the top of the cake.
Step 5
Bake cake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Step 6
While the cake is baking, start preparing your glaze.
Step 7
Combine the other 1/2 cup brown sugar, granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla, and heavy cream in a saucepan and bring to a simmer.
Step 8
Remove from heat and stir until all sugar is dissolved. This shouldn’t take very long.
Step 9
When cake is finished baking, poke holes in the top with a toothpick. Pour glaze over the cake. It should seep into the holes and make for a nice sticky, sweet topping.
Step 10
Serve cake warm or at room temperature.
