Ingredients:

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 1 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 teaspoons ground nutmeg
• 1 cup Libby’s canned pumpkin
• 1/2 cup butterscotch chips
• 3 eggs
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Powdered sugar (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Ensure your oven is properly preheated before starting to ensure even baking.

2. Prepare Bundt pan: Grease a 12-cup Bundt pan generously to prevent sticking.

3. Melt Butterscotch Chips: In a small, microwave-safe bowl, microwave the butterscotch chips on MEDIUM-HIGH (70%) power for 1 minute. Stir well. Continue microwaving at additional 10-20 second intervals, stirring until smooth. Allow the melted chips to cool to room temperature.

4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, salt, and ground nutmeg. Mix well to ensure even distribution of ingredients.

5. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, using a wire whisk, stir together the melted butterscotch chips, Libby’s canned pumpkin, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.

6. Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry flour mixture into the large bowl with the wet ingredients. Stir until the batter is smooth and all ingredients are fully incorporated.

7. Fill Bundt Pan: Spoon the prepared batter into the greased Bundt pan, ensuring it is evenly distributed.

8. Bake: Place the Bundt pan in the preheated oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

9. Cool: Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan on a wire rack for 30 minutes. Afterward, carefully invert the pan to remove the cake and allow it to cool completely on the wire rack.

10. Garnish: Before serving, sprinkle the cooled cake with powdered sugar for a delightful finishing touch.

11. Serve: Slice the Butterscotch Pumpkin Cake and serve it to your delighted guests. Enjoy the irresistible blend of flavors in every bite!

This Butterscotch Pumpkin Cake is a wonderful addition to any dessert spread, whether for holiday celebrations, potlucks, or cozy family gatherings. With its moist texture and rich flavor, it’s bound to become a seasonal favorite that everyone will love.
