Ingredient Notes
Cake
Salt – Salt is so important in any and all baked goods. Sugar – Brown sugar, packed and some white granulated sugar. This will provide some notes of molasses and depth of flavor. Pumpkin – Pick up a can of pumpkin – it’s available in the canned aisle year round! Spice – Pumpkin pie spice to really tie together that pumpkin pie flavor.
Filling
Cream cheese – Reduced fat can also be used to cut calories, but I prefer full fat Philadelphia cheese. Sugar – Icing sugar is what we’re using to ensure a perfectly smooth filling. Butter – Unsalted and softened to be incorporated seamlessly. There are typically soften options on microwaves so check yours! Spices – Pumpkin pie spice to tie together all those flavors in our cake with our filling. Whipping cream – You can either pick it up pre-made or make your own fresh, it’s totally up to you! Vanilla extract – Without this, your dessert may taste a little flat.

Storing Leftovers
Store your leftover pumpkin roll in an airtight container in the fridge or tightly wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate. The cake should last about 5 days in the fridge.
Freezing
If by any miracle you still have any cake left, this pumpkin roll freezes quite nicely, but make sure you wrap it tightly in plastic wrap first. This makes this cake perfect for making ahead of time. To thaw it out, transfer it to the fridge a day before serving.
