Preheat your oven to 350°F and prepare your pan by lining it with parchment paper.
In an electric mixer, combine cake mix, melted butter (1/2 cup), and one egg until smooth. Press into the bottom of the prepared pan.
In another bowl, beat together pumpkin puree, cream cheese, remaining eggs, brown sugar, melted butter (remaining), vanilla extract, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg until well blended.
