Really Yummy Pumpkin Cake
1/2 c. butter
1 c. sugar
2 eggs, beaten
2 c. canned pumpkin
1/2 c. milk
1 tsp. soda
2 1/4 c. flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. ground cloves
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
Cream together the butter and sugar. Add eggs, pumpkin, and milk and mix to combine. In a separate bowl, sift dry ingredients together, then add to pumpkin mixture and blend just until combined. Bake at 350 degrees in a greased and floured cookie sheet pan for 20 minutes. (It can also be baked in a 9x13 pan for 30-35 minutes, or in cupcake pans for 15-17 minutes).
When cake is cooled, spread frosting on top.
Frosting:
4 oz. cream cheese, softened to room temperature
1/2 c. butter, softened
2 tsp. vanilla
2 c. powdered sugar
Cream together the cream cheese, butter and vanilla. Gradually add the powdered sugar and mix to combine.
