Nothing beats a pumpkin recipe during the fall. This amazing Pumpkin Sheet Cake looks like a pumpkin patch and taste amazing.
This Pumpkin Sheet Cake is one of my favorite fall treats. It's so simple to make and topped with a homemade cream cheese frosting, crushed pecans, and candy pumpkins.
How to make Pumpkin Sheet Cake:
Step one: Get started by preheating your oven to 350 degrees. Then prepare an 18x13 pan with nonstick cooking spray. Also go ahead and melt your melt butter then set aside to cool. This way it's ready when you are.
Step two: Next whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and pumpkin spice then set aside.
Step three: Work on your dry ingredients by whisking together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and pumpkin spice then set aside.
Step four: Next mix your wet ingredients. In a stand mixer, beat cooled melted butter with sugar. Then add in eggs one at a time.
Step five: Add pumpkin puree and vanilla extract to stand mixer and mix until combined.
Step six: Slowly add in dry ingredients until combined. Pour batter into your prepared baking dish.
Step seven: Bake for 18-24 minutes until cake is cooked through. You should be able to place a toothpick in the middle of your cake and it comes out clean.
How to make Cream Cheese Frosting:
Step one: In a stand mixer cream together cream cheese and butter until smooth. Once smooth add in milk and vanilla extract and mix.
Step two: Add powdered sugar and mix until smooth and creamy. Add more milk as needed.
Step three: Once cooled top your pumpkin cake with frosting and add crushed pecans and pumpkin candies. Slice and serve.
