Recipe View Cool and Adorn: Allow the cake to cool completely before topping with thawed whipped topping. This prevents the topping from melting and creates a beautiful presentation. (30 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding 1/2 cup of caramel sauce to the pumpkin mixture.
If you prefer a less sweet cake, reduce the granulated sugar to 1 1/4 cups.
Toasting the pecans before chopping them will enhance their nutty flavor.
Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
