Spiced Pumpkin Cake Roll
Ingredients
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 2/3 cup pumpkin puree
  • 3 large eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar, or more to taste
  • 2 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to a medium-high temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit (or 190 degrees Celsius, if you prefer metric).
2
Next, take a moment to prepare your baking surface by lightly coating it with oil or cooking spray. A 10x15-inch jelly roll pan is ideal for this recipe.
3
Meanwhile, combine sugar, pumpkin puree, eggs, and a pinch of warm spice - cinnamon - in a large mixing bowl.
4
In another bowl, whisk together flour and baking soda until well combined. Then, gradually add the dry ingredients to your pumpkin mixture, blending until a smooth batter forms.
5
Pour the batter into your prepared pan and spread it evenly to cover the entire surface.
6
Bake in a preheated oven for 15 to 25 minutes, or until the cake springs back when gently pressed.
7
Once done, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool for just a few minutes.
8
To assemble, carefully invert the cake onto a soft cotton tea towel. Starting with one edge, begin to roll up the cake in a smooth, even motion - much like you're making a jelly-roll. Place the seam-side down to cool, and this should take around 15 minutes.
9
While your cake is cooling, prepare the filling by beating together cream cheese, powdered sugar, butter, and a hint of sweetness - vanilla.
10
Once your cake has cooled completely, unroll it and remove the tea towel. Spread a generous amount of filling over the entire surface of the cake, making sure to cover it all the way to the edges.
11
Roll up the cake again, this time without the towel, and wrap it tightly with plastic wrap. Refrigerate until you're ready to serve.
12
Finally, slice your cake into 10 portions and dust with a light layer of powdered sugar.
