» Pumpkin Dream Cake

This gorgeously stacked cake is the BEST PUMPKIN CAKE YOU WILL EVER EAT. That is why it is rightly named the Pumpkin Dream Cake. While this is an old tried and true recipe (just read the comments), I am updating this post with new photos and video. It’s been 5 years, I figured it was time for a little tune up.

You start with a pumpkin spice cake from scratch. Then we keep it extra moist by adding butter and oil to the cake batter.

For the frosting, you whip up a quick cream cheese icing that is flavored with cinnamon, real maple syrup and vanilla extract. Ingredients: Creole Cake Recipe. Cancel TOP Filters What's in Your Fridge?
