Scale
Pumpkin Cake:
- 4 Eggs
- 2 Cups Sugar
- 3/4 Cups Canola Oil
- 2 tsp Baking Soda
- 1 tsp Salt
- 4 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
- 2 Cups Flour
- 1 cup Pumpkin Puree
Cream Cheese Frosting:
- 12 oz. Cream Cheese, room temp.
- 6 Tbs. Butter, room temp.
- 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 4 1/2 Cups Powdered Sugar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and spray a baking sheet (a 13x17 half sheet) with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a mixing bowl using a whisk or a hand mixer, beat the eggs until they are well beaten.
- Add the sugar and oil. Mix well.
- Add the canned pumpkin puree.
- Add the baking soda, salt, pumpkin pie spice and whisk well.
- Add the flour to the pumpkin mixture and mix just until combined.
- Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula just to make sure everything is mixed in and pour the cake batter onto the prepared baking sheet (a 13x17 half sheet pan).
- Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes.
- Let the cake cool completely on a wire rack before frosting.
- For the homemade cream cheese frosting, beat the room temperature cream cheese and butter together until smooth.
- Add the vanilla extract, and powdered sugar. Beat until smooth.
- Frost the completely cooled top of the cake.
- I recommend chilling the cake to set the frosting before covering with plastic wrap.
- Store in the fridge.
Notes
- FUN TIP- For a fun twist you can add 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon to the frosting to make cinnamon cream cheese frosting!
