How to make it

  • In large bowl, combine eggs and sugar, beating well.
  • Add pumpkin and lemon juice, mixing until blended.
  • In separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, spices and salt.
  • Add to egg mixture, mixing well.
  • Spread batter into greased and waxed-paper lined cookie sheets. (Make sure you grease the wax paper really good, or it's hard to get off the cake.)

  • Remove from oven.
  • Cool for 15 minutes.
  • Place cake on clean tea towel sprinkled liberally with powdered sugar.
  • Cool 10 minutes longer.
  • Roll cake up in towel.
  • Set aside.
  • While cake is cooling in towel, prepare filling.
  • Beat together cream cheese and butter; stir in powdered sugar and vanilla and blend until smooth.
  • Unroll cake.
  • Evenly spread filling over cake.
  • Roll up cake (without the towel).
  • Wrap in plastic wrap.
  • Cover and chill at least 1 hour.
  • Slice before serving.
  • Keep leftover slices refrigerated.
  • This pumpkin roll freezes well.

    So funny, my mother-in-law makes this recipe at Thanksgiving, although I am not a fan of mussy pumpkin pie, this is incredibly great. This recipe is identical to hers (she uses 1 t vanilla) otherwise exact. The recipe on can is slightly different, I think yours and hers is the best. I am going to make my first soon and post, of course, copius pics. So funny to see this, love it. JJ

    Gem, this sounds amazing! I usually pass on jelly rolls, becuase they are usually stuffed with jams or jellies and just too boring for me to bother...but, this one, pumpkin cake with cream cheese filling??? What's NOT to like??? Another great post, with thanks :)
