Servings 1 pumpkin roll

Ingredients
  

  • Cake:
  • 3/4 C flour
  • 1 t baking powder
  • 2 t cinnamon
  • 1 t pumpkin pie spice
  • 2/3 C pumpkin
  • 1/2 t nutmeg
  • 1/2 t salt
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 C sugar
  • Filling:
  • 1 C powdered sugar
  • 1 8 oz. pkg. cream cheese softened
  • 6 T butter softened
  • 1 t vanilla

Instructions
 

  • 1. Put the eggs and sugar in a mixing bowl and beat on high for 4-5 minutes. You want the mixture to turn nice and creamy white like the picture above.
  • 2. Add the pumpkin and mix until incorporated.
  • 3. In a separate bowl mix the dry ingredients.
  • 4. Add the dry ingredients into your mixing bowl and mix until well combined.
  • 5. This Pam spray has flour added to it and is great for baking. It really helps things NOT stick. Spray a little circle of it in the center of a jelly roll pan. Line the pan with a piece of wax paper and then spray it with cooking spray.
  • 6. Spread the batter out evenly over the wax paper. "Evenly" is the key here. You want it to be as smooth as possible.
  • 7. Bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes.
  • 8. While the cake is baking, lay out a clean dish towel onto your counter. It needs to be a "flour sack" dishtowel, not the kind of dish towel that is made out of terry cloth. Cindi told me they are available even at Wal mart!
  • 9. Sprinkle powdered sugar all over the dish towel.
  • 10. As soon as the cake is finished baking, carefully loosen the edges with a knife and then dump it onto the dish towel.
  • 11. Remove the wax paper.
  • 12. Cut off any jagged edges.
  • 13. Roll it all up! Set it on a wire rack to cool.
  • 14. While the roll is cooling make the filling.
  • 15. Beat the cream cheese and butter together for about 2 minutes, or until smooth.
  • 16. Add the other ingredients and beat until smooth and silky.
  • 17. When the cake is completely cooled, unroll it and spread the frosting evenly over the top.
  • 18. Roll it all up again and lay it seam side down on top of some plastic wrap.
  • 19. Wrap the roll in plastic wrap and then in tin foil.
  • 20. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours. They also freeze very well.
