MOIST PUMPKIN CAKE ROLL



Moist Pumpkin Cake Roll image

Years ago a close friend at work brought this in and I demanded the recipe. I memorized the recipe because I made it so much... then after a while of not making it, I forgot it a little and had to alter it. Now it's even more moist and delicious, as if it needed to be. This cake can be frozen for later use or stored in the fridge.

Time 1h5m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 large eggs
½ cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¾ cup pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon lemon juice
⅓ cup white sugar
½ cup white sugar
2 tablespoons sifted powdered sugar, or more as needed
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups powdered sugar, or more as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a 15x10x1-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper, then grease it.
  • Separate egg yolks and whites into 2 separate mixing bowls. Stir flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, and cinnamon together in a small bowl.
  • Add pumpkin, vanilla, and lemon juice to the egg yolks; beat on high speed with an electric mixer until thick. Add 1/3 cup sugar and beat on high until dissolved.
  • Beat egg whites until foamy. Gradually add 1/2 cup sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Fold into the egg yolk mixture. Fold in flour just until combined. Spread batter evenly into the prepared pan.

Provided by Momma Cyd

Categories     Dessert

Time 3h29m

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 1/4 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 cup sugar
3 eggs (room temp)
1 teaspoon vanilla
2/3 cup pumpkin puree
8 ounce cream cheese (softened)
6 tablespoons butter (softened)
1 1/3 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees
  • Spray a 10 x 15 inch jelly roll pan (cookie sheet) with non stick cooking spray. Line the pan with parchment paper with some extra paper hanging over the sides of the narrow edge of the pan (10 inch side).
  • Then spray the parchment paper in the pan with more cooking spray. (So now both sides of the parchment paper have been sprayed). Set aside.
  • In a medium sized bowl combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice with a whisk. Stir just until combined. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl mix the sugar and eggs together with a hand mixer. Beat until creamy (about 2 minutes).
  • Add in the vanilla and pumpkin puree. Mix until well blended.
  • Then add in the flour mixture to the pumpkin mixture. Using a wooden spoon, mix just until combined, Do not overmix.
  • Carefully place batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly to cover the entire pan. Place in the preheated oven and cook until cake is set. (About 13-14 minutes) The top should spring back when touched with finger.
  • When cake is done cooking, quickly remove from pan by holding onto the overhanging parchment paper on each narrow end of the pan.
  • Place on the counter and begin to roll the cake up with the parchment paper. Roll snug, but not so tight that is mashes the cake. When done rolling up, place seam side down against the counter to cool. You could also carefully lift and place on a wire rack to cool for a few hours.
  • After the cake is done cooling, make the filling by placing the cream cheese, softened butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk in a large mixing bowl. Cream together with a hand mixer until smooth.
  • Unroll the cake very gently. Spread the filling over the entire cake leaving about 1/2 inch leaving about 1/2 inch around the edge on all four sides.
  • After your spread on the filling, carefully roll up the cake roll again. But this time do not roll with the parchment paper.
  • Cover and chill for about an hour.
  • Sprinkle cake roll with powdered sugar and slice into 1 inch thick slices and serve.
  • Store cake in the fridge. It also freezes well.

Tips:

  • To achieve a moist and tender cake roll, ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before mixing. This allows them to blend smoothly and evenly, resulting in a well-balanced batter.
  • Do not overbeat the egg whites; stiff peaks are not necessary for this recipe. Overbeating can cause the cake roll to become dry and crumbly.
  • When spreading the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, use a thin, even layer. This will help ensure the cake roll cooks evenly and rolls up nicely without cracking.
  • While baking, keep a close eye on the cake roll to prevent overcooking. It is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Allow the cake roll to cool completely before filling and rolling. This will help prevent the cake from tearing or breaking.
  • For a smooth and even filling, use a piping bag or a butter knife to spread it evenly over the cooled cake.
  • When rolling the cake, start from one of the short sides and roll tightly. Use a piece of parchment paper or a kitchen towel to help you roll the cake evenly and smoothly.
  • Once rolled, wrap the cake roll tightly in plastic wrap and chill it for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the cake set and hold its shape.

Conclusion:

This delicious pumpkin cake roll is a perfect treat for any occasion. With its moist and tender crumb, spiced pumpkin flavor, and creamy filling, it is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. The recipe is easy to follow and can be made with ingredients you probably already have on hand. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this pumpkin cake roll a try. You won't be disappointed!
