Pumpkin Roll Cake Cream Cheese (Recipe for Printing)

Fluffy pumpkin cake rolled with sweet, creamy filling for a festive autumn dessert.

# What You Need:

→ Cake

01 - 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
02 - 1 teaspoon baking powder
03 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
04 - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
05 - 3 large eggs
06 - 1 cup granulated sugar
07 - 2/3 cup pumpkin puree
08 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

→ Filling

09 - 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
10 - 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
11 - 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
12 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

→ For Dusting

13 - Powdered sugar, as needed

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a 15x10-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper and lightly grease the surface.
02 - In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon until thoroughly combined.
03 - In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar with a mixer until thick and pale. Blend in pumpkin puree and vanilla extract until smooth.
04 - Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined and no dry flour remains.
05 - Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan and use a spatula to smooth the surface. Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until the cake springs back lightly when touched.
06 - Immediately turn the warm cake onto a clean kitchen towel dusted generously with powdered sugar. Peel away the parchment. Roll the cake up gently from the short end with the towel and let cool completely.
07 - In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and butter together until light. Add powdered sugar and vanilla, mixing until smooth and creamy.
08 - Carefully unroll the cooled cake. Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the surface. Re-roll the cake without the towel, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate until set.
09 - Dust the top of the cake roll with powdered sugar before slicing. For best results, chill before serving and use a sharp knife for clean cuts.

# Extra Tips:

01 - Chilling the pumpkin roll before slicing results in neater, cleaner slices and helps the filling set firm.
02 - For added flavor, garnish with a light dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of caramel sauce just before serving.
