Pumpkin Cake with Cream Cheese Icing

By A Cowboy's Wife | January 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 8oz. Cream Cheese (I prefer the whipped in the tub.)
  • 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……
