This Caramel Pumpkin Cake Roll is such a moist and delicious cake with a rich caramel cream cheese filling. It is topped with an incredible caramel frosting that is the perfect finishing touch.
- 3 eggs, separate egg yolks and egg whites
- 1 cup sugar, divided in half
- ⅔ cup pumpkin puree, I use the canned kind
- ¾ cup flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Filling
- 8 ounces softened cream cheese, softened
- ⅓ cup dulce de leche
- 1½ cups powdered sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Caramel Frosting
- 3 Tablespoons butter
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Line a 15x10 inch baking pan with parchment paper. Grease and flour the pan and the top of the paper.
- In a large bowl, beat egg yolks until think. Gradually add ½ cup sugar and the pumpkin. Beat mixture until the sugar is almost dissolved.
- In a smaller bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add remaining sugar and beat until stiff peaks form. Fold the egg whites into the pumpkin mixture.
- In a smaller bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gently fold into pumpkin mixture. Spread into pan.
- Bake at 375 degrees F for 13 to 15 minutes, or until cake springs back when touched. Cool 5 minutes and turn cake onto a kitchen towel sprinkled with powder sugar. Gently peel off paper. Roll up cake in in the towel starting with the shorter side. Cool completely before adding the filling.
