Pumpkin Cake Roll

 

For the cake roll:

1 cup chopped walnuts, toasted, set aside


3 large eggs, separated, room temperature

1 cup sugar, divided

2/3 cup canned pumpkin

3/4 cup flour

1 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. ground cinnamon

1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice

1/8 tsp. salt


Filling:

8 ounces cream cheese, softened (Do not use whipped cream cheese for this recipe.)

2 tblsp. butter, softened

1 cup confectioner's sugar

3/4 tsp. vanilla extract


Line a 15 x 10 x 1 inch baking pan with waxed paper; grease the paper and set aside. In a large bowl beat egg yolks on high speed until thick and lemon-colored. Gradually add 1/2 cup sugar and pumpkin, beating on high until sugar is almost dissolved.

In a small bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add remaining sugar, beating until stiff peaks form. Fold into egg yolk mixture. Combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt; gently fold into pumpkin mixture. Spread into prepared pan. Top with toasted walnuts.

Bake at 375 degrees until cake springs back when lightly touched, 12-15 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes. Turn cake onto parchment paper. Gently peel off waxed paper. Roll up cake in the paper jelly-roll style, starting with a short side. Cool completely on a wire rack.

In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, butter, confectioner's sugar, spices, and vanilla until smooth. Unroll cake; spread filling evenly to within 1/2 inch of edges. Roll up again without the paper. 

Sprinkle with confectioner's sugar when serving if desired, serve with whipped cream.

This can be frozen up to 3 months.

Chocolate Raspberry Cake

One Chocolate Cake mix...I use the super moist kind..remember to scratch the box before opening then you can tell everyone you made it from scratch!

Make a two layer cake according to directions on box, when cool slice each layer in half. (I use dental floss for this) 

Warm in the micro a small jar of raspberry jam and brush or spoon it on all open cut halves. 

Whip one pint of heavy whipping cream (stiff) and mix in 1/2 to 2/3 cup of sugar to dissolve.  Fill between layers with the whipped cream, can also put cream on the top and if you have some fresh raspberries put a few on the top as well.

Tiramisu Layer Cake


Ice Box Cake

2 small pkgs of vanilla pudding (6 oz I think)
2 small pkgs of chocolate pudding
Only use cook and serve pudding, instant doesn't have the correct
consistency.
Box Graham Crackers

Line bottom of 9x12 glass pan with whole graham crackers, trimming to fit
edges

Prepare vanilla pudding as directed, pour over graham crackers, top vanilla
pudding with a layer of graham crackers.
Prepare chocolate pudding as directed pour over vanilla pudding and graham
crackers. Crush some of the remaining graham crackers and sprinkle on top.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.  Cut and serve, top with whipped cream.

**We've tried reversing the layers and putting the chocolate on the bottom
and it didn't work.
** If I'm making this for myself I use sugar free pudding.
