Desserts - Cakes
PUMPKIN-PRALINE CORN MEAL CAKE

"Rich, moist and topped with a crunchy coconut praline-like topping, this prize-winning pumpkin-spice cake relies on Quaker Corn Meal for its unique flavor and hearty texture."

1/2 cup (1 stick) margarine, softened
1 1/2 cups firmly packed brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 (16-oz.) can solid pack pumpkin puree (not pie filling)
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup Quaker Corn Meal
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt (optional)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/3 teaspoon ground nutmeg
FOR THE TOPPING:
1 cup shredded coconut
1 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) margarine, melted
1/4 cup milk

Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 13 x 9-inch baking pan.

Beat margarine, 1 cup brown sugar and granulated sugar until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each. Blend in pumpkin. Add combined dry ingredients, mixing just until moistened. Spread into prepared pan.

Combine remaining 1/2 cup brown sugar and remaining ingredients; mix well. Spread evenly over batter.

Bake 45 to 50 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely on wire rack.
