Time 1h

Yield 12 to 16

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 cups all-purpose flour, spooned into measuring cup and leveled-off
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1½ sticks (¾ cup) unsalted butter, melted
1½ cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs
1 (15-oz) can 100% pure pumpkin
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
4 oz cream cheese, at room temperature
⅛ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3¼ cups confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and set an oven rack in the middle position. Grease a 9-x-13-inch baking dish with butter or nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cloves, cinnamon, and nutmeg; set aside.
  • In a large bowl of an electric mixer, beat the melted butter and sugar on medium speed until just combined. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the pumpkin. Add the dry ingredients and mix on low speed until well combined.
  • Turn the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Set the cake on a wire rack to cool completely.
  • In a large bowl of an electric mixer, beat the butter and cream cheese together on high speed until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute. Beat in the salt and vanilla. Add the confectioners' sugar and beat on low speed for 30 seconds, then switch to high speed and beat until light and creamy, about 2 minutes. Spread the frosting on the cooled cake. Cut into squares and serve. Cover any leftover cake tightly with aluminum foil and store in the fridge for up to 4 days (bring to room temperature before serving) or at room temperature for up to 2 days.
  • Make-Ahead Instructions: The cake can be made and frosted up to two days ahead of time. Cover tightly with aluminum foil and store in the refrigerator; allow the cake to come to room temperature before serving.
  • Freezer-Friendly Instructions: Freeze the unfrosted cake, tightly wrapped, for up to 3 months. When ready to serve, defrost the cake to room temperature, make the frosting, frost, and serve.

Categories     Cake     Dessert     Bake

Yield 10 people

Number Of Ingredients 16

Cake:
4 eggs
1 2/3 cups sugar
3/4 cup canola oil
2 cups flour, sifted
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 (14 oz.) can pumpkin pie filling
Cream Cheese Icing:
1 (3 oz.) package cream cheese
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons margarine
2 cups confectioners sugar
1 teaspoon milk (optional)

Steps:

  • Cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan. Mix eggs and sugar in a large bowl. Add canola oil, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Add pumpkin pie filling. Mix until well blended. Pour mixture into 10-inch tube pan. Bake for ~45 to 50 minutes until cake tester comes out clean. Let cool, then cover with cream cheese icing. Cream cheese icing: Combine all ingredients. Mix until smooth. If desired, add 1 teaspoon of milk to make smoother consistency.

Tips:

  • For a smooth and lump-free batter, make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough cake.
  • For a moist cake, use fresh pumpkin puree. Canned pumpkin puree can be used, but fresh pumpkin puree will give the cake a better flavor.
  • To prevent the cake from sticking to the pan, grease and flour the pan before pouring in the batter.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting set properly.
  • For a richer flavor, use a cream cheese frosting instead of a buttercream frosting.
  • Decorate the cake with pumpkin seeds, cinnamon sticks, or fall leaves for a festive touch.

Conclusion:
