Moist Pumpkin Layer Cake With Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting
"This Pumpkin Layer Cake comes together in less than an hour and is the perfect fall treat. The cake itself is incredibly fluffy and moist, thanks to the rich pumpkin and blend of spices. Baked to perfection, it’s then layered with a creamy cinnamon cream cheese frosting that adds a tangy sweetness. This cake will make it feel like fall, even if the Southern heat hasn’t died down yet. Pumpkin in a cake doesn’t just add flavor. It makes the crumb unbelievably soft, the kind of texture you can only describe as melt-in-your-mouth. Not dense. Not heavy. Just tender and moist. It bakes up while your oven preheats, which still blows my mind. The spices are what make it sing, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, each one giving a little nudge of warmth. I like to measure them out myself instead of grabbing a pumpkin spice jar. It gives me room to adjust. More cinnamon? Yes. Skip the allspice? Why not. That’s the beauty of it. "
