Introduction

I used a large can of pumpkin. (28 oz) I took 1 cup and set it aside for the filling, and used the rest of the can in the cake. Yes it is a lot, but makes cake very moist.

Beat the cream cheese until smooth, add icing sugar, 1 cup pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice. Beat until smooth. By hand mix in the cool whip.

Slice the cake layer in half horizontally. (Use toothpicks stuck in around the sides and "cut" with dental floss if this is difficult for you to get even)
Put half the filling between the layers. Put the other layer on top of this and add rest of filling on top. Toast the pecans lightly and let cool. Drizzle the carmel sauce on the cake, and then top with pecans.
