Death by Pumpkin Cake

1 stick melted butter
1 yellow cake mix
1/2 cup pecans, chopped
2 (15 oz) cans pumpkin mix (approx 3.5 cups)
4 eggs
1 can evaporated milk
1 1/2 cup sugar
1/4 tsp cloves
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp salt

In a small bowl mix melted butter, cake mix and pecans; set aside. In a larger bowl combine pumpkin, eggs, evaporated milk, sugar, cloves, cinnamon and salt. Stir until smooth.

Pat half the cake mixture in bottom of a lightly greased 9 x 13 pan. Pour in pumpkin mixture. Sprinkle half of remaining cake mixture and swirl in with a knife. Reserve some to sprinkle on top.

Bake at 350 for 1 hour or until knife comes out clean. Serve warm with fresh whipped cream on top.

NOTE: This cake is best if made the day before serving and then slightly warmed before serving.
