Ingredients

1/2 cup all purpose flour

1 tsp baking powder

2 tsp pumpkin pie spice

4 eggs separated

1/2 cup canned pumpkin (if you get the one with the spices in it, you don't need the pie spice)

1/2 tsp vanilla

1/3 cup sugar

1/2 cup sugar

sifted powdered sugar

Cream Cheese Icing

8 oz cream cheese

1/2 butter

2 tsp vanilla

4 cups (1lb) sifted powdered sugar

Directions

Combine flour, backing powder and pie spice; set aside

in a small or med mixing bowl, beat egg yolks and vanilla on high for about 5 min or till thick and lemon colored.

Gradually add the 1/3 cup of sugar, beating on high till sugar is nearly dissolved.

Stir in the pumpkin.

THOROUGHLY WASH AND DRY THE BEATERS <<very important!!

In large bowl beat egg whites on medium till soft peaks form (tips curl). Gradually add the 1/2 cup sugar, beating toll stiff peaks form (tips stand straight).

Fold yolk mixture into egg whites.

Sprinkle flour mixture over egg mixture; fold in gently till combined.

Spread batter mixture evenly onto a 15x10x1 jelly roll pan lined with greased and floured foil. (parchment paper works wonders)

Bake in a 375 degree oven for 12 to 15 minutes or until cake springs back when lightly touched near center.

Immediately turn cake onto a very thin towel or paper towels sprinkled generously with powdered sugar.

Peel paper off and roll up the cake and towel from one of the short sides. Cool on a rack.

Once the cake is cool ( can put in the fridge or freezer if making it ahead of time).

Unroll cake; remove towel.

Spread with cream cheese icing.

Roll cake up and put in fridge till ready to serve.

Sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving.

Cake freezes really well after it has been filled also.

Cream Cheese Icing Directions

Beat everything but the powdered sugar until light and fluffy.

Gradually add 2 cups of powdered sugar beating well.

Gradually beat in remaining sugar to make frosting a spreading consistency.
