Preparation Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 15x10-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt.
  • In a large bowl, beat eggs and granulated sugar until thick and pale. Stir in the pumpkin.
  • Fold the dry ingredients into the pumpkin mixture until just combined.
  • Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for 13 to 15 minutes until the top of the cake springs back when touched.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the filling by beating cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Once baked, let the cake cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Turn out onto a towel dusted with powdered sugar.
  • Starting at one narrow end, roll up the cake with the towel. Let cool completely.
  • Unroll the cooled cake and spread the cream cheese filling over it. Re-roll the cake and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
