Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare your jellyroll pan by lining it with parchment or wax paper and lightly greasing the paper.
- Generously sprinkle ¼ cup of powdered sugar on a large tea towel and set it aside on a flat surface.
- In a medium bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice blend, and salt. Whisk together and set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat together the eggs and granulated sugar until pale and thick, about 2 minutes.
- Beat in the pumpkin puree and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
- Gently stir the dry mixture into the wet mixture until just combined, avoiding overmixing.
- Spread the batter evenly onto the prepared jellyroll pan, leaving a ¼” border around the edges.
- Bake for 14-15 minutes until the cake is set and springs back lightly when touched.
- Remove the cake from the oven and turn it out onto the prepared powdered sugar-dusted towel, peeling off the parchment paper carefully.
- Starting from the short side, roll the cake and the towel up together. Let it cool completely on a wire rack.
- In a clean bowl, beat the softened butter until light and fluffy. Add cream cheese and beat until smooth.
- Add vanilla extract and sea salt, then gradually add powdered sugar, mixing well. Optionally add cinnamon for flavor.
- Once the cake is cooled, unroll it and spread the cream cheese filling evenly across. Re-roll without the towel, forming a tight spiral.
- Chill the rolled cake in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before slicing.
- Slice into generous pieces and dust with additional powdered sugar if desired before serving.
