Perfect Pumpkin Roll

  • Recipe Submitted by on

 Ingredients List

  • CAKE ROLL:
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2/3 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 3/4 cup flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • FILLING:
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 cup butter softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 1/3-1/2 cup crushed pineapple drained really well

 Directions

In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs for 5 minutes. Gradually beat in the sugar. Beat in the pumpkin and vanilla.

Whisk together the dry ingredients in a small bowl, then add to the pumpkin mixture. Stir till well blended.

Pour batter into a jelly roll pan that has been lined with parchment paper and sprayed with non-stick spray. (Mine is about 15 x 11 x 1".) Bake at 375° for 15 minutes, or till cake is completely set in the middle.
Invert hot cake onto a flour sack dishtowel that has been sprinkled generously with powdered sugar. Loosely roll up the cake and towel, and let cool completely.
While cake is cooling, prepare filling by beating all ingredients together till smooth.
Unroll cake and spread filling to within ½" of the edges. Roll the cake up starting at the short side.

Wrap pumpkin roll in plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator. Chill for at least two hours to blend flavors. It can also be frozen at this point.

To serve, unwrap the pumpkin roll and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Slice in 1" slices.
