Ingredients
For the Pumpkin Roll
- ¾ cup All-purpose flour
- 1 tsp Baking powder
- 1/2 tsp Baking soda
- 1½ tsp Member's Mark™ Ground Cinnamon
- 1 tsp Member's Mark™ Pumpkin Pie Spice
- ¼ tsp Salt
- 3 large Eggs, room temperature
- ⅔ cup Canned pumpkin puree (NOT pumpkin pie filling)
- ½ cup Brown sugar, packed
- ½ cup Granulated sugar
- 1 tsp Pure vanilla extract
- ¾ Confectioners' sugar
For the Cream Cheese Frosting
- 6 oz Full-fat cream cheese, room temperature
- ¼ cup Unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1½ cups Confectioners' sugar
- 1 tsp Pure vanilla extract
Instructions
For the Pumpkin Roll
- Preheat oven to 350℉. Spray a 10 x 15-inch baking sheet with nonstick spray, so the parchment paper sticks. Line the sheet with parchment paper. Then, spray or the parchment paper, too.
- Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, Member's Mark™ Ground Cinnamon, Member's Mark™ Pumpkin Pie Spice, and salt together in a large bowl. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, pumpkin, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla together until combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until combined.
- Spread batter evenly into prepared pan, making sure the batter is level and reaches the corners. Bake for 17–18 minutes, or until the cake springs back when you poke it with a finger.
- Meanwhile, lay a clean, thin kitchen towel flat on the counter. Sprinkle with ¾ cup confectioners’ sugar. Once the cake comes out of the oven, immediately invert it onto the towel. Peel off the parchment paper. Starting with the narrow end, slowly and gently roll the cake up with the towel.
- Allow the cake to cool completely while rolled up in the towel. You can place it in the refrigerator for about 2 hours to speed up the cooling time.
- Remove the cake roll from the refrigerator and allow to sit on the counter for a few minutes to warm back up a bit as you prepare the frosting.
For the Cream Cheese Frosting
- In a large bowl using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle or whisk attachment, beat the cream cheese for 1 minute on high speed until completely smooth and creamy.
- Next, beat in the butter until combined. Add the confectioners’ sugar and vanilla and beat on medium-high speed until combined and creamy.
- Gently unroll the cake. Flatten it out and spread the cream cheese frosting evenly on top, leaving about a 1/2-inch border around the edges. Tightly roll the cake back up, without using the towel.
- Loosely cover the roll with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 20 minutes before slicing and serving. You can sprinkle a little extra Member's Mark™ Pumpkin Pie Spice, if you'd prefer.
- Be sure to serve (your adult guests) the roll with Autumn Spiced Cider!
