directions

  • In a large bowl, beat eggs and sugar. Beat in remaining cake ingredients.
  • Grease a 10"x15" jelly roll pan. Line pan with waxed paper, then grease and lightly flour the waxed paper.
  • Pour batter into the pan and spread evenly. Bake at 350F for 15 minutes. *Cake cooks fast so watch carefully to avoid burning the edges.
  • While cake is baking, sprinkle powdered sugar heavily over the kitchen towel, using a sieve or sifter.
  • Turn hot cake onto the towel.
  • Remove waxed paper. Trim off burnt or crusty edges.
  • Sprinkle more powdered sugar over the hot cake and quickly roll up with towel inside. Let cake cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prepare filling by beating together all ingredients until smooth and creamy.
  • Unroll cooled cake and spread with the filling mixture. Roll up cake with filling on the inside. Wrap in waxed paper and then foil.
  • Refrigerate or freeze. To serve, slice cake about 1/3 inch thick and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
  • Note - cake cuts best when still slightly frozen.

Reviews

  1. Excellent Dessert!! I add a little Orange Zest in the cream cheese filling and pecans on top of the filling, before back rolling up.
     
  2. This recipe is so easy I usually make two at a time. Not only does it taste great, but I make them and put into the freezer to use at a church circle, club meeting, or for friends who just happen to drop by. I always try to keep at least one in the freezer.
     
  3. Tastes just like the pumpkin roll I fell in love with last year at the Half Moon Bay Pumpkin Festival. I used waxed paper instead of a kitchen towel and worked just fine.
     
  4. Delicious,I use goat cream cheese for the filling and I have also added pumpkin to the cream cheese filling,great reviews for both.With the cake I take out the cinnamon and use 1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice. I make two at time and try to keep four in the freezer. I rate this dessert 8 stars. Nany

Tweaks

  1. Use parchment paper instead of wax paper. No need to grease the paper or pan that way! Peels of really easily! I made a few modications. I used Pumpkin Spices from McCormick instead of just the cinamon and ginger. 1.5 teaspoons. I also added a few dashed of ground closves. Really makes it better with the cloves I think. So far I have made about six this season. Everyones loves them! Takes a few times to get the technique right but after watching some youtube videos I was set! Great rolls, will make again for sure!
     
  2. Used 1.5 tsp of pumpkin pie spice and a couple dashes of cloves instead of the cinnamon and nutmeg
     
  3. I couldn't find my Aunt Twylla's recipe in my recipe box so I used this one since it seemed to be the closest one I could find. It turned out great just like my Aunt Twylla's. I used 1T of Pumpkin Pie Spice instead of 1t cinnamon and 1/2t netmeg and the flavor was great! I froze two for a few weeks and thawed them last night in the fridge - everyone at church thought it was great!
