Pumpkin Cake with Cream Cheese Icing

Cooked up by Lori on Jan 13, 2008

This is SUPER easy to make and VERY good!!  My oldest son really dislikes pumpkin but he loves this so you should give a try even if pumpkin ain’t your thing;)

This is a 2-part recipe, meaning it will have cake ingredients & preparation and icing ingredients & preparation.  And here we go………….

CAKE INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 c. Flour
  • 2 c. Sugar
  • 2 tsp. Baking Soda
  • 1 tsp. Cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp. Salt
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 c. Vegetable Oil
  • 15 oz Pumpkin Can…You can use a big 29oz too, just add more sugar & flour.

Now, we don’t have lots of money to spend on high priced-name brand groceries, so you will see lots of  Sure Fine and Dollar Store goodies here at this blog.

CAKE PREPARATION:

Preheat oven to 350′. 

Add dry ingredients first and mix together.  Add remaining ingredients and mix all of it together. Pour in and bake in a greased cake pan.   For 25 to 30 minutes or until done.  I poke mine with toothpicks to check:)

ICING INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 stick Butter
  • 1 box of Confectioners Sugar
  • Vanilla

Cream first 3 ingredients together until smooth. Add vanilla to taste and mix:)   After cake has cooled, add icing and dust it with cinnamon on top to make it purty……

  4. It WAS good Tina! I’m trying to find a way for people to print the recipes without images, just in case they don’t want them.

  6. This sounds so good. I have been loving pumpkin stuff more than normal this year.

    Over the holiday we made a white cake with pumpkin filling on top of it and it was so good. This just looks yummy too.

    Have a great week.
