In a mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, water and egg; mix well. Pour into an ungreased 8-in square baking pan.

Set aside 1/4 cup crumbs for garnish. In a bowl, whisk milk and pudding mixes for 2 minutes or until slightly thickened. Let stand for 2 minutes or until soft set. Stir in pumpkin and spices; mix well. In a trifle bowl or 3 1/2 qt. glass serving bowl, layer a fourth of the cake crumbs, half of the pumpkin mixture, a fourth of the cake crumbs and half of the whipped topping. Repeat layers. Garnish with reserved cake crumbs and Toffee Bits. Serve immediately or refrigerate.
