CINDY'S PEACHY KEEN PUMPKIN CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Thoroughly cover a 9" x 13" pan with vegetable oil spray. "Flour" pan with some of the dry whipped topping mix.
• In large mixing bowl, add together the remaining dry whipped topping mix, yellow cake mix, sour cream, cake spice along with the eggs and pumpkin. Drain the sliced peaches and set half aside. Dice the other half and add to the mixing bowl. Using an electric mixer or egg beater, mix all the ingredients as directed on the cake mix box.
• Then pour the batter into the pan and gently bump the bottom of the pan on a counter to raise any air bubbles in the batter. Keep bumping until you're satisfied all bubbles have raised and burst.
• Bake in the center of the oven for 40 minutes. Test with a toothpick for doneness and bake 5 more minutes if needed. Cool cake on a rack on the counter.
• Once cake has cooled to slightly warm, spread peach pie filling on top of the cake. Add the remaining sliced peaches to make a solid layer of peaches with the filling. Slice into 3" x 3" servings. Serve with Vanilla Cool Whip.

PUMPKIN CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 9 x 13″ or equivalent baking dish.
• In a large bowl, stir together the flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, baking powder and kosher salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, granulated sugar, pumpkin puree, eggs, oil and applesauce. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until combined. Pour into the prepared pan and use a spatula to smooth into an even layer.
• Bake 25 to 30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool until for 30 minutes, then refrigerate about 15 minutes until it comes to room temperature. (Or allow to cool and refrigerate it, then frost before serving.) If desired, dust with powdered sugar before serving or proceed to the cream cheese frosting (recommended).
• Meanwhile, make the cream cheese frosting: Let the butter and cream cheese sit on the counter for 1 hour to come to room temperature. Use a fine mesh sieve to sift the powdered sugar into a bowl. Beat the butter and cream cheese with a stand mixer or hand mixer on medium speed for 2 to 3 minutes until completely smooth, scraping once. Reduce the speed to low, then add the vanilla. Slowly add the powdered sugar until it comes together into a thick icing. Use immediately or refrigerate until using. Store refrigerated for up to 1 week; allow to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes and stir before using.
• Spread the frosting on top of the cake to the desired thickness (you can use the entire batch or less if desired). Stores refrigerated for up to 3 to 4 days; bring to room temperature before serving. Freeze the completely cooled unfrosted cake tightly wrapped for up to 3 months.
