Pumpkin Sheet Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting is a moist spiced pumpkin cake with a silky smooth sweet cream cheese frosting.
Oh, how I love sheet cakes! You don’t get much easier than making a homemade sheet cake. Since it is Fall, I am bringing you a luscious pumpkin sheet cake with cream cheese frosting.
My sister-in-law will bring a pumpkin cake to a family party and it is gone within minutes. It is always a hit and oh so popular! The pumpkin cake is spiced with pumpkin pie spice made with cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, and cloves.
Every October we head up to Park City, Utah to truly experience Fall. We love to visit the pumpkin patches, drink the apple cider when it is actually cold outside, and embrace wearing a sweater. This Moist Pumpkin Cake is what we love to serve when we visit the cousins since it feeds a lot of people and can be made in no time at all.
The pumpkin cake is extra moist because of the oil. You know how much I love butter but in this cake, adding oil makes such a tender texture.
The cream cheese frosting is made with softened butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar, a touch of milk or cream, and vanilla. It is light and creamy and pairs perfectly with the soft pumpkin cake.
Once the cake is baked, let it cool and then frost with homemade cream cheese frosting. This Pumpkin Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting can be served at a Fall party, a potluck, or after a Sunday family dinner.
