Pumpkin Crunch Cake

I find this cake addictive.  I think I like it better than pumpkin pie. I can't make it very often or if I do I have to share it or I will eat the whole pan.  I like it that much.  It is pretty much pumpkin pie on the bottom and then cake mix with butter and nuts on the top.  I compare it to cherry dump cake.  If you love pumpkin than you should try this asap!
