Ingredients
For the cake:
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 large eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
2/3 cup canned pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the filling:
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F. Line a 10x15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar until thick and pale. Mix in the pumpkin puree and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the pumpkin mixture just until combined.
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the cake springs back lightly when touched.
While the cake is baking, lay a clean kitchen towel on the counter and dust it generously with powdered sugar.
Once baked, immediately turn the cake out onto the prepared towel. Carefully peel off the parchment paper. Starting from the short end, roll the cake up with the towel inside. Let it cool completely while rolled.
To make the filling, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Carefully unroll the cooled cake. Spread the filling evenly over the surface, leaving a small border around the edges. Gently roll the cake back up without the towel.
Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before slicing. Dust with powdered sugar before serving for a beautiful old-fashioned finish.
