Hi Everyone- Hope you’re ready to get your plans for Thanksgiving rolling. This cake makes a great addition to you Thanksgiving dessert and the best thing about it is that it needs to be made a few days before serving. No last minute holiday rush to enjoy this yummy treat.
You need
- 2 cups sugar
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 1 15 ounce can pumpkin
- 2 cups flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 2 teaspoons cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon ginger
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 stick of butter melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/4 cream (milk works also)
Mix sugar, eggs and oil in the bowl of an electric mixer. Add pumpkin and mix well. In a seperate bowl, mix remaining dry ingredients. Add to mixer and mix until just incorporated.
Pour into ungreased bundt pan and bake at 350 for 50 to 60 minutes. Let cool and then remove from pan. wrap cake for up to 3 days with plastic wrap.
To make frosting, mix powdered sugar, melted butter, vanilla and cream with electric mixer until smooth. Gently spread frosting on the top of the cake. I usually frost on the day I am serving because it is easier to wrap the unfrosted cake.
Would love to hear about some of your favorite Thanksgiving desserts! Off to a great week.
XO,
Jenny
