harvest pumpkin cake
This cake is absolutely delicious! The flavorful pumpkin, with cinnamon and vanilla, pairs perfectly with the fluffy, cream cheese icing. This is a family favorite for autumn. My son probably wouldn't drive in from East Tennessee for Thanksgiving if this cake wasn't on our table.
