Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (350°F for a jelly roll pan) and prepare a 15x21 inch baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and pumpkin spice.
  3. In a large bowl, blend together eggs, sugar, canned pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared baking sheet and bake for 11-13 minutes.
  6. Invert the cake onto a powdered sugar-sprinkled tea towel and roll tightly while warm.
  7. Cool the rolled cake completely on a wire rack for about 30-40 minutes.
  8. Beat together softened cream cheese, butter, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar until smooth for the filling.
  9. Unroll the cooled cake and spread the cream cheese filling over the surface.
