1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 cup granulated sugar
4 Tbsp. butter, softened

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease 8"x8" pan.
2. Reserve 1 cup of cake mix.
3. In a large bowl, combine the remaining dry cake mix with 1 beaten egg and 1/2 cup melted butter.  Mix well, then pat into prepared pan to form crust.
4. In a large bowl, mix together pumpkin puree, 3 eggs, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla.
5. Pour over crust.
6. Combine reserved 1 cup cake mix, 1/2 cup sugar, and 4 Tbsp. softened butter.
7. Crumble over pumpkin filling.
