This is the dish that my friend shared with me in 2019. It is tasty and deserving of saving.

Ingredients
- 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
- 2 cups white sugar
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 4 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 6 ounces cream cheese, softened
- ¾ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons milk
- 5 cups confectioners’ sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a sheet cake pan.
- Combine pumpkin, sugar, flour, oil, eggs, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt for cake together in a bowl. Mix well. Pour into the prepared cake pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Invert carefully onto a serving plate or cooling rack. Let cool completely, about 30 minutes.

Reviews
I made this cake into a 9″ double layer cake rather than making a sheet cake. The cake was good but the frosting would have been EXTREMELY sweet with 5 cups of powdered sugar. I used only 2 cups and it was plenty sweet. I also added a tsp of cinnamon to the frosting. Thanks for sharing but I doubt that I will make this again.
