Steps:

• To prepare cake: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 15 by 10-inch jelly roll pan (affiliate link) with non-stick cooking spray. Line with a sheet of parchment paper leaving a 1-inch overhang on narrow ends. Spray parchment paper with non-stick cooking spray.
• In a medium mixing bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and cloves. Set aside.

• Mix in pumpkin and vanilla extract.
• Add flour mixture and fold with a spatula just until combined.
• Pour batter into prepared pan, spread into an even layer then wiggle pan to evenly level.
• Bake in preheated oven until cake is set (top should spring back when touched) about 13 - 15 minutes.
• Working quickly, using parchment overhang lift cake and transfer to clean, heatproof work surface. Starting on one narrow roll cake up to opposite side (use knit gloves if it's too hot to handle, and roll somewhat snuggly but not tight as to flatten cake). If needed tie a kitchen string or ribbon around cake to keep parchment from slipping.
• Let cool completely on a wire rack, about 2 - 3 hours. Prepare filling once cake is done cooling.
• To prepare filling: in a medium mixing bowl using an electric hand mixer beat together cream cheese, powdered sugar, butter and vanilla until smooth.***
• Slowly unroll cake, spread filling over cake leaving about 1/4-inch border uncovered along all edges. Re-roll cake from one narrow end to the other (don't roll parchment paper up with the cake). Cover cake with parchment or plastic wrap and chill at least 1 hour.
• To serve dust top of cake roll with powdered sugar if desired. Cut into 1-inch slices.
• Store cake in refrigerator in an airtight container up to 4 days or freeze up to 2 months.

PUMPKIN ROLL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a jelly roll pan (15 x 10'') with parchment paper, leaving an extra inch of parchment sticking up on both long sides of the pan so that you can easily lift the cake out after baking. (You can VERY lightly grease the parchment paper, if you want to, but you don't need to!)
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice. In a separate bowl mix the eggs, sugar, vanilla and pumpkin until smooth.
• Add dry ingredients to the bowl and stir just until combined and no dry streaks remain.
• Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.
• Bake for 14-15 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Immediately lift the payment paper and hot cake out of the pan and onto a flat (heat-safe) surface.
• While the cake is hot, starting at one of the short ends, use your hands to gently and slowly roll the cake (and parchment paper!) all the way up. Allow it to cool completely, on top of a wire cooling rack. (This allows it to cool underneath the roll, and keeps the cake from sweating).
• While the cake roll is cooling, mix the cream cheese, butter, vanilla, and powdered sugar together with an electric mixer until it is fluffy and smooth.
• Once the cake roll is cooled completely, unroll it very carefully. Gently smooth the filling in an even layer over the cake.
• Roll up the cake without the parchment paper. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, before serving.
• Dust the top with powdered sugar, if desired. You could use a duster, spoon, or even your fingers to lightly sprinkle it on top of the roll. Cut into slices and serve.
• Store in the fridge, covered, for up to three days.
