Preheat oven to 350*. Line the bottom of a 9 x 13 baking dish with wax paper.
Combine the potatoes, evaporated milk, sugar, eggs, and cinnamon; mix thoroughly. (A mixer will work fine, but a food processor will mix the potato strands much better.)
Pour into a lined baking dish.
Sprinkle the dry cake mix and chopped pecans over the top of the potato mixture; coating evenly. Drizzle melted butter on top of the dry cake mix and pecans.
Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until golden brown and set. Cool well.
Place another platter over the top of the pan & invert the dish upside down onto a same size or larger platter. Peel the wax paper from top.
With an electric mixer, combine the cream cheese and sugar. Mix well, until you do not feel the sugar grit between your fingers when feeling the texture of the mix. Then stir in the cool whip and blend well.
Spread over the top and sides of the potato dish. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
