Ingredients
- 3 eggs, beaten
- 1 c. white sugar
- 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
- 2/3 c. pumpkin puree
- 3/4 c. all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 2 tbsp. butter, left outta the frig. for a while to soften
- 8 oz. cream cheese (1 package),
also left outta the frig. for some softenin’ up - 1 c. confectioners’ sugar
- 1/4 tsp. vanilla extract
- confectioners’ sugar for dusting
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375 F (190 C). Butter or grease one 10x15 inch jelly roll pan, or a casserole dish with edges. Cookie sheets won’t work.
- In a mixing bowl, blend together the eggs, sugar, cinnamon, and pumpkin. In a separate bowl, mix together flour and baking soda. Bring these two together
- Bake 15 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven. Remove from oven and allow to cool enough to handle. Hum Too Hot to Handle and shimmy/ stomp all over that kitchen of yours.
- Remove cake from pan and place on tea towel (cotton, not terry cloth). Roll up the cake slowly by rolling a towel inside cake and place seam side down to cool. You’re making the cake flexible for when the real rolling happens.
- Prepare the frosting by blending together the butter, cream cheese, confectioners sugar, and vanilla. Refrain from sticking whole hand into bowl and then devouring hand.
- When cake is completely cooled, unroll and spread with cream cheese filling. Roll up again without towel. Wrap with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve. Congratulations, you have a pumpkin roll. Sprinkle top with confectioners sugar and slice into 8-10 servings, or just 1 serving (you don’t hafta slice it at all). Eat it like a hoagie. Regret nothing.
