Line the bottom of a 10 inch tube pan with waxed paper. In a large bowl, sift all your dry ingredients, including spices. In a medium bowl, cream margarine, gradually add sugar, mix until light yellow. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beat well after each addition. Stir in vanilla. Add dry ingredients to egg mixture alternating with pumpkin. Mix well after each addition. Stir in pecans. Pour into the wax paper lined tube pan and bake in preheated 350 degree F oven for 1 1/2 hours.

RE: Pumpkin Cake
My sister in law just made a really good pumpkin cake. She said you use a store bought spice cake mix (dry not by box directions); 1 can of pumpkin and 1/2 cup of water. Just mix the 3 things and bake. She served with cool whip but you could probably frost as well. (10/05/2005)
Combine first five ingredients and spread into a greased 9x13 inch dish. Sprinkle with 1 yellow cake mix. Top with 1 cup chopped nuts. Drizzle 3/4 cup melted margarine over nuts. Bake at 350 degrees for 40 to 45 minutes until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean; cool.
