A Unique Pumpkin Snack Cake

Yes, my friends, I’m coming at you with another pumpkin recipe for fall. We’re making this super easy Pumpkin Snack Cake with Toffee. If you’re new to Inspired by Charm, we love pumpkin here. If you do too, I have an entire collection of my BEST pumpkin recipes which you can find HERE. I cover everything from sweet to savory and pasta to cocktails. You’re in for a treat.

I couldn’t be more thrilled to add another tasty recipe to that collection. This pumpkin snack cake is unique in that the batter is sprinkled with chocolate-covered toffee bits. It adds something distinctive and different to this pumpkin cake that sets it apart from the rest.

I had this cake in my refrigerator for a few days and kept on making up excuses to have another piece or bite. It was THAT good! I couldn’t stop thinking about it.

I think you’re going to love it too.

Why You’ll Love this Recipe:

These days there are a lot of pumpkin recipes that you can make and try. In fact, here on IBC, I have a bunch that I would recommend. To help your baking decision-making process, I’ve listed a few of the reasons why I think you’ll love this recipe:

1. It’s easy. I appreciate any baking recipe that doesn’t require me to drag out my big mixer. The only thing you need for this recipe is a couple of bowls, a whisk, and a spatula. Love that.

2. The pumpkin flavor is one point. When it comes to pumpkin recipes, I’m always conscious of the pumpkin spice flavor. The balance of pumpkin and spice is wonderful here. It screams fall.

3. Pumpkin and toffee are magic. Who knew that toffee and pumpkin together could be so yummy!? The toffee I used is wrapped in chocolate which only adds to the magic.

Let’s get baking!

How to Make Pumpkin Snack Cake

For your convenience, I’ve provided a detailed ingredient list and instructions in the printable recipe card below.

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9×13 baking pan with baking spray.
In a large bowl whisk together the sugar, flour, flaxseed, baking powder, baking soda, spices, and salt.

Add the eggs, pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, and sour cream. Mix to combine.
Add in the toffee pieces. Gently mix to combine.

Spread the batter into your prepared baking pan.
In a small bowl, prepare the topping by whisking together the sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle on evenly on top of the cake.

Bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan. Prepare the cream cheese drizzle by beating together the cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, milk, and salt.
Drizzle over the cooled cake.

Cut, serve, and enjoy!

And that’s it! I told you it was easy! You can store this cake covered in the refrigerator for up to three days.

Recipe Notes:

A few other things to note…

Don’t have flaxseed? No worries; this recipe works just as great without it.
Go nutty! Love nuts with your pumpkin desserts? Add them in. I recommend using approximately one cup of nuts. Walnuts or pecans work perfectly here. Mix them in with your toffee bits.
Not a fan of sour cream? If you prefer, you could use Greek yogurt instead.
