In a large bowl, combine 2 (7 oz.) packages Martha White Pumpkin Spice Muffin Mix, ⅔ cup whole milk, and ½ cup sour cream. Spread batter into prepared pan and sprinkle crumble topping over the surface. Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool completely. Before slicing, dust the surface of the cake with 2 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar.
