Pumpkin Pound Cake



Ingredients
1/2 cup butter
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup canned pumpkin
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1-1/2 cups flour
1-1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda

Directions
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 45 minutes

Preheat oven to 350°F. Beat butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add pumpkin, eggs and vanilla; stir well. In a small bowl, stir together dry ingredients; add to pumpkin mixture and mix well. Pour into a greased loaf pan and bake for about 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool before slicing.

Makes 8 servings.  

I made this and it is fabulously moist. You can add some chocolate chips, butterscotch morsels, or nuts. Also dust with powdered sugar or frost with orange or rum glaze or even cream cheese frosting! ENJOY
Joane

Thank you Joane. That does sound yummy.

Another question for you Joane :big grin  Pumpkin pie spice.. I don't think I have seen that here. We have mixed spice, I guess it would be similar

Ingredients: pumpkin spice
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoons ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground allspice


What I buy is already made up but you can make it yourself Sheryl. Also, our powdered sugar is like your frosting/icing  sugar.

Yes Celeste. I used the light brown sugar and THAT is the secret ingredient! This cake literally melts in your mouth. I put mine in a tube pan instead of a loaf pan. It baked faster that way.

You are welcome Sheryl. ENJOY!
