Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 eggs
1 cup white sugar
⅔ cup pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon lemon juice
¾ cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon salt
¼ cup powdered sugar
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup powdered sugar
¼ cup margarine
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease and flour a 15x10-inch jelly roll pan.
  • Place eggs in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on high speed until pale and thick, about 5 minutes. Gradually add sugar, beating well. Stir in pumpkin and lemon juice.
  • Combine flour, cinnamon, baking powder, ginger, nutmeg, and salt in a separate bowl. Fold into the egg mixture. Spoon batter into the prepared pan, spreading evenly into the corners.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 15 minutes. Take care not to over bake.
  • Invert cake onto a clean dish towel. Sprinkle 1/4 cup powdered sugar on top. Lift up one long edge carefully and roll the cake into a log, wrapped in the towel. Set aside until cool, at least 15 minutes.
  • Combine cream cheese, powdered sugar, margarine, and vanilla extract in a bowl. Beat until smooth and creamy. Unroll the cake and spread filling on top. Roll cake up again and refrigerate, seam-side down, until set.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start baking, gather all your ingredients and equipment. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling around for things in the middle of the process.
  • Use fresh pumpkin purée: Canned pumpkin purée is a convenient option, but fresh pumpkin purée will give your cake a richer flavor. To make your own pumpkin purée, simply roast a pumpkin until it is tender, then scoop out the flesh and purée it in a food processor or blender.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the cake is cooked through.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
  • Use a serrated knife to cut the cake: This will help prevent the cake from crumbling.

Conclusion:

The pumpkin log roll is a delicious and festive dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist cake, creamy frosting, and colorful sprinkles, it is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you are looking for a special dessert, give this pumpkin log roll a try. You won't be disappointed!
