Step-by-Step Instructions for Pumpkin Roll
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a 10x15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until thick and pale, then fold in the pumpkin puree and vanilla.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt, then fold into the wet mixture.
  4. Spread the batter into the pan and bake for 13-15 minutes or until golden brown.
  5. Immediately turn the cake onto a towel dusted with powdered sugar and roll it up to cool.
  6. Beat together the cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth for the filling.
  7. Unroll the cooled cake and spread the filling evenly, then re-roll it tightly without the towel.
  8. Wrap the Pumpkin Roll in plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for at least 1 hour before serving.
  9. Dust with additional powdered sugar before serving and slice to enjoy.
