PUMPKIN SHEET CAKE
The pastor at our church usually cuts his message short on carry-in dinner days when he knows this sheet cake is waiting in the fellowship hall. (I think he prays for leftovers since he gets to take them home!) This moist cake travels well and is also easy to prepare. -Nancy Baker, Boonville, Missouri

PUMPKIN SHEET CAKE WITH MOLASSES CREAM-CHEESE FROSTING
This simple, warmly spiced pumpkin cake is enough to feed a crowd, making it a perfect holiday treat. It's also relatively versatile: You can serve it in the pan for an easy presentation, or transfer it to a platter for something a little more refined. The frosting is just enough to coat the cake in a thin layer, but, if you want more, you may want to more for a generous coating. And, for a more subtly flavored frosting, substitute an equal amount of dark maple syrup for the molasses, or skip the molasses entirely for pure cream-cheese flavor.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and spices until well combined.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the brown sugar, butter and grapeseed oil. Beat on medium-high until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing for about 20 seconds between each. Add the vanilla extract and pumpkin purée and mix until well combined, scraping the bottom and sides of the bowl as necessary.
- Turn the mixer to low, and add the dry ingredients. Stir until a few spots of flour remain. Remove the bowl from the mixer, and use a rubber spatula to finish folding in the dry ingredients. The batter will be thick and fluffy, so make sure to scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl to ensure it is evenly mixed.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top, and firmly tap the pan on the countertop a few times to release any large air bubbles. Bake the cake until golden and puffed, and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes.
- Cool the cake, still in the pan, on a rack for 15 minutes, then use the tip of a knife to loosen the edges and carefully invert it onto the rack to cool completely.
- Make the frosting: Add the cream cheese and butter to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium-high until smooth. Turn the speed to low and slowly add the confectioner's sugar, mix until the sugar is moistened, then turn the mixer up to medium-high and whip until smooth. Add the molasses, lemon juice, vanilla and pinch of salt, and whip until smooth.
- Invert the cooled cake to a serving platter, frost and serve. Alternately, you can also frost and serve this cake in the pan it was baked in, if you'd rather not transfer it to a serving platter.

Steps:
- Mix pumpkin, sugar and oil in a large mixing bowl. Add eggs and mix well. Combine dry ingredients and add to pumpkin mixture. Blending well with a mixer.

Beat the butter and cream cheese together, add the vanilla and blend until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and milk. Mix well until you have a spreadable consistency.
Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all your ingredients and tools ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
- Room Temperature Ingredients: When a recipe calls for room temperature ingredients, it's important to take them out of the fridge about 30 minutes before you start baking. This will help them blend more smoothly and evenly.
- Measure Accurately: Using the correct measurements is essential for successful baking. Invest in a good set of measuring cups and spoons, and make sure you level off the ingredients when measuring.
- Don't Overmix: Overmixing can make your cake tough and dense. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake at the Right Temperature: Make sure your oven is preheated to the correct temperature before you put your cake in. If the oven is too hot, the cake will brown too quickly and the inside will be undercooked. If the oven is too cool, the cake will take too long to bake and will be dry.
- Test for Doneness: To test if your cake is done, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the cake is done. If it comes out with batter or crumbs attached, the cake needs to bake a little longer.
- Let the Cake Cool: Before you frost the cake, let it cool completely. This will help the frosting set properly.
Conclusion:
With its moist texture, sweet pumpkin flavor, and creamy cream cheese frosting, this pumpkin sheet cake is the perfect dessert for any occasion. By following the tips above, you can ensure that your cake turns out perfectly every time. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy-to-make dessert, give this pumpkin sheet cake a try.
