Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- ½ tsp ground nutmeg
- 3 large eggs (room temperature)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
- ½ cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 2 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
- In another bowl, beat eggs and granulated sugar until thick and pale. Fold in pumpkin puree and vanilla.
- Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients using a spatula; mix gently to avoid overmixing.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan, spreading evenly. Bake for about 15 minutes or until it springs back when touched.
- Immediately invert the cake onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar. Peel off parchment paper while rolling up the cake tightly in the towel.
- For frosting, blend softened cream cheese with butter until smooth; gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract until creamy.
- After cooling completely (about 30 minutes), unroll the cake gently and spread frosting evenly before rolling it back up without the towel.
- Chill wrapped in plastic wrap for at least one hour before slicing.
