It’s a beautiful fall day and what better way to embrace the season than by baking a delicious dessert? I’ve got just the recipe for you – a mouth-watering Pumpkin-Pecan Spice Cake that will have your taste buds singing!
To start, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and grease a 9×13 inch baking pan. In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 can of pumpkin puree, 1 cup of vegetable oil, and 4 eggs. Mix until smooth with an electric mixer or by hand.
Next, add 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 cups of sugar, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 2 teaspoons of cinnamon, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt to the bowl. Mix until well-combined and no lumps remain.
Now, fold in 1 cup of chopped pecans with a spatula. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
While the cake is baking, let’s prepare the icing. In a medium mixing bowl, combine 1 package (8 oz.) of cream cheese, softened, 1/2 cup of butter, softened, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix until creamy and smooth.
Gradually add 2 cups of powdered sugar to the bowl, mixing well after each addition. Finally, stir in 1/2 cup of chopped pecans.
Once the cake is finished baking, let it cool for 5-10 minutes before spreading the icing on top. Sprinkle with additional chopped pecans if desired.
