Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 0.5 tsp ground nutmeg
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 15×10-inch jelly roll pan and line it with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
- In another bowl, beat eggs and sugar until thick and light in color. Fold in pumpkin puree, then gradually add dry ingredients.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 15 minutes or until it springs back when touched.
- Immediately invert cake onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar; peel off parchment. Roll the cake tightly with the towel inside.
- For the filling, beat softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth.
- Unroll the cooled cake gently, spread cream cheese filling evenly, and re-roll without the towel. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour before slicing.
