Directions:
Preheat oven to 350º. Combine cake mix, egg and melted butter and mix well with a mixer. Pat the mixture into the bottom of a lightly greased 13 x 9 pan. Prepare filling.

Banana: Add 2 mashed ripe bananas to filling.

Pumpkin: Add 1 – 15 oz. can of pumpkin, 1 t. cinnamon, 1 t. nutmeg to filling and use 3 eggs instead of 2 in filling. Make sure you beat the cream cheese and pumpkin together first. Serve with whipped cream.
