Delicious Pumpkin Cake Recipe for Fall

In a large mixing bowl, combine pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, and vegetable oil. Whisk these ingredients together until they are smooth and well combined.

Add in the eggs and vanilla extract, and continue to mix until fully integrated.

In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg. Gradually fold the flour mixture into the pumpkin mixture until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.

Pour the cake batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Once done, remove from the oven and let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.

Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated. Then, slowly add the heavy cream while continuing to beat until the frosting is light and fluffy.

Once the cake is completely cool, spread the cream cheese frosting evenly on top using a spatula.

You can also add decorative elements such as chopped nuts or a sprinkle of cinnamon for extra flavor and presentation.

Slice the cake into squares and serve. This pumpkin cake is perfect for fall gatherings, festive occasions like Thanksgiving, or any time you crave a delicious treat!
