CRANBERRY-PUMPKIN SPICE CAKE
Even though this is a light dessert, my kids love it. Since it's so popular, I stock up on canned pumpkin in the fall when it's on sale so I can make it all year long. -Cami LaForge, Murray, Utah

Tips for Making Cranberry Pumpkin Spice Cake:
- Make sure your butter and eggs are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help the ingredients mix together more evenly and create a smoother batter.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the toothpick comes out with wet batter, the cake needs to bake for a few more minutes.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting set properly.
- If you don't have a bundt pan, you can bake the cake in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Just adjust the baking time accordingly.
- Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
