Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 + 1/2 tsp pumpkin spice
1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
2 eggs
1/2 can (7.5 ounces) pumpkin puree (seal & refrigerate the rest for pumpkin bread!)
1/2 cup cream cheese frosting
12 oz. white chocolate chips or melting candies
1/2 cup butterscotch chips
1/2 tsp crisco or butter

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a round cake pan or loaf pan; set aside. In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and Pumpkin Spice; set aside. In a large bowl, mix both white and brown sugars, butter, and eggs until smooth. Add the dry ingredients, and mix again until smooth. Fold in the pumpkin puree until thoroughly combined. Pour the batter into the greased pan Bake until tops spring back to the touch, and a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean, 25-30 minutes. Let cool completely. Once cooled, crumble the cake into a bowl and add the cream cheese frosting. Mix with a spoon or hands until thoroughly combined; Add spoonfuls of frosting one at a time if the cake is still dry Roll the cake out into 2″ balls and place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment or wax paper Place the cake balls in the freezer for 30 minutes to an hour At this point you can place the cake balls in a freezer bag and store in the freezer for up to three months to continue later if preferred. In a small bowl, heat the white chocolate in 20 second increments in the microwave, stirring in between each time Using a toothpick, skewer or spoon (I use a spoon), dip the chilled cake balls into the white chocolate. Coat the cake balls and return to the cookie sheet. Chill for 30 minutes while you prepare the Butterscotch. In a microwave safe bowl, add the Butterscotch chips and the Crisco / butter. Heat in 20 second increments, stirring in between. Once thoroughly melted, allow to cool for about 10 minutes. Spoon the melted Butterscotch into a small sandwich bag. Snip off a very TINY corner of the bag and drizzle over the truffles. Chill for a few minutes until the butterscotch is set.

Categories     Other Desserts

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pkg butterscotch morsels
2 c flour*
1 3/4 c sugar
1 Tbsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 c pumpkin (not pie filling)
1/2 c vegetable oil
3 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla
confectioner's sugar, optional

Steps:

  • 1. In a small, microwave-safe bowl, heat 1 cup of the morsels for 1 minute. Stir. Microwave an additional 15-30 seconds,as necessary, stirring after each, until morsels are melted and smooth. Cool to room temperature.
  • 2. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a medium mixing bowl. Set aside.
  • 3. Stir pumpkin, vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla, and cooled morsels together in a large bowl, with a wire whisk.
  • 4. Stir the flour mixture into the pumpkin mixture.
  • 5. Spoon the batter into a silicone bundt, or a bundt which has been thoroughly coated with food release spray.
  • 6. Bake 40-50 minutes at 350*, until a wooden pick comes out clean.
  • 7. Cool completely. Sprinkle with confectioner's sugar, if desired.
  • 8. NOTES: Add nutrition and flavor by substituting up to 25% of your flour with coconut flour. You may also wish to substitute coconut oil for all/part of the vegetable oil. To ease removal, if you don't have a silicone bundt (get one!), lay a cool, damp cloth over the inverted pan for a few minutes. Kick this up a notch by serving slices in a puddle of butterscotch sauce, or drizzle. *This recipe is easily made gluten free by using your favorite gluten-free flour. I like Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free All Purpose Baking Flour.

Tips:

  • To ensure the cake bakes evenly, use room temperature ingredients. This will help the batter to mix smoothly and prevent lumps.
  • For a richer flavor, use dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • To prevent the cake from sticking to the pan, grease and flour the pan before pouring in the batter.
  • To check if the cake is done, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the cake is done.

Conclusion:

Butterscotch pumpkin cake is a delicious and festive fall dessert. With its moist texture, rich flavor, and decadent frosting, it's sure to be a hit at any gathering. Whether you're a seasoned baker or a beginner, this recipe is easy to follow and will yield a beautiful and delicious cake. So, preheat your oven and get ready to enjoy the taste of fall!
