Food & Cooking Recipes Dessert & Treats Recipes Cake Recipes Pumpkin Spice Cake with Honey Frosting 3.4 (636) Close Credit: David Loftus Prep Time: 25 mins Total Time: 2 hrs 30 mins Servings: 9 For a fall treat, this moist and delicious pumpkin spice cake can't be beat. It's an easy snacking cake made with canned pumpkin purée and pumpkin spice. The recipe calls for a 9-inch square pan, but a loaf pan works well, too. Either way, don't skip the delicious honey frosting made with cream cheese, butter, and honey. Directions Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch square baking pan. In a medium bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin-pie spice. In a large bowl, whisk eggs, sugar, butter, and pumpkin puree until combined. Add dry ingredients to pumpkin mixture, and mix gently until smooth. Turn batter into prepared pan, and smooth top. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached, 45 to 50 minutes. Cool cake 10 minutes in pan, then turn out of pan, and cool completely, right side up, on a rack. Make Honey Frosting: In a medium bowl, whisk butter, cream cheese, and honey until smooth. Spread top of cooled cake with honey frosting. Cut cake into squares to serve. Cook's Notes You can also use a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan: Increase baking time by 25 to 30 minutes (tent loaf with foil if it browns too quickly).
