Creative Thursday’s-Pumpkin Roll

I can’t believe October Creative Thursday is already here! Emily , Tara and I enjoy hosting this challenge and this month’s challenge is a Fall Themed Dessert. I knew exactly what I wanted to bake! I have never made a Pumpkin Roll cake before but I remember how yummy it tasted, so I thought I may try my hand at this cake! I will admit that I was quite intimated to make this cake but I think it turned out pretty good!

Ingredients

-3/4 c all purpose unbleached flour

-1 tsp baking soda

-1 tsp ground cinnamon

-1/4 tsp Himalayan salt

-1 c cane sugar

-2/3 c canned pumpkin

-1 tsp vanilla

Filling

-8 oz cream cheese, softened

-2 tbsp. butter, softened

-1 tsp vanilla

-1 c powdered sugar, plus more for dusting

1-Preheat oven to 350. Line jelly roll pan with parchment paper & lightly grease.

2-In large bowl, mix flour, salt, baking soda and cinnamon. In separate bowl, mix eggs, pumpkin and vanilla until smooth.

3-Add dry ingredients to bowl and stir until just combined.

4-Spread batter as evenly as possible into pan.

5-Bake for 12-15 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.

6-Immediately lift parchment paper and hot cake from pan onto flat, heat safe surface.

7-While cake is hot, start rolling at short ends, gently, while cake is still in parchment paper, all the way up.

Allow to cool completely on wire rack.

8-While cake is cooling, mix cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar and vanilla with mixer until fluffy and smooth.

9-When cake is completely cooled, unroll it very carefully. Gently smooth the filling in an even layer over the cake.
