I thought the flavor of this was spectacular. The pumpkin spice gives a nice kick. I did think the bottom ended up being soggy though. I cooked it for the hour and also did the toothpick coming out clean thing, but maybe I should have cooked it just a little longer. On the other hand, maybe I was expecting more of a cake and its not a cake. Either way the flavor was great

This was a really good and easy dessert. Perfect for fall get togethers! I put some foil to prevent the pecans from burning after 30 minutes of baking. Yum! Make sure you serve it with Cool Whip...its what makes it even better! :) Also, I did not mix the cake mix and the pecans - I sprinkled the cake mix then the pecans on top of that....
