PUMPKIN ROLL WITH GINGER AND PECANS

Pumpkin Roll with Ginger and Pecans image

This is a great dessert, especially nice for holidays, but it can be served anytime of the year. The resulting pumpkin roll slices will impress your guests. The pumpkin roll is not as hard to make as it sounds. Be sure and use plain canned pumpkin, and not pumpkin pie mix.

Ingredients

3 eggs
1 cup white sugar
⅔ cup solid pack pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon lemon juice
¾ cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 cup chopped pecans
confectioners' sugar for dusting
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
4 tablespoons butter
1 cup confectioners' sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10x15 inch jellyroll pan.
In a large bowl, beat eggs and sugar with an electric mixer on high speed for five minutes. Gradually mix in pumpkin and lemon juice.

Place pumpkin roll on a long sheet of waxed paper, and dust with confectioners' sugar. Wrap cake in waxed paper, and twist ends of waxed paper like a candy wrapper. Refrigerate overnight. Serve chilled; before slicing, dust with additional confectioners' sugar.

Tips:

Make sure your oven is preheated to the correct temperature before baking the cake roll. This will help ensure that the cake bakes evenly.
Use a clean tea towel to roll up the cake immediately after baking. This will help prevent the cake from cracking.
If you are having trouble rolling up the cake, try using a piece of parchment paper to help you.
Let the cake roll cool completely before frosting it. This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
When frosting the cake roll, use a thin layer of frosting so that the cake doesn't become too sweet.
Decorate the cake roll with additional pecans, pumpkin seeds, or whipped cream, if desired.
