1️⃣ Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 10×15-inch jelly roll pan and line it with parchment paper. Grease the parchment paper as well.
2️⃣ Make the Pumpkin Cake:
In a large bowl, beat eggs with granulated sugar until thick and pale yellow. Stir in the vanilla extract and pumpkin puree.
In another bowl, sift together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture, mixing until smooth.
3️⃣ Bake the Cake:
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared jelly roll pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cake springs back when lightly touched.
4️⃣ Prepare for Rolling:
While the cake is baking, lay out a clean kitchen towel and dust it generously with powdered sugar.
When the cake is done, immediately invert it onto the powdered sugar-dusted towel. Carefully peel off the parchment paper.
5️⃣ Roll the Cake:
Starting at one of the short ends, gently roll the cake and towel together into a tight spiral. Place seam side down on a wire rack to cool completely.
6️⃣ Make the Cheesecake Filling:
In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
7️⃣ Assemble the Cake:
Carefully unroll the cooled cake and remove the towel. Spread the cheesecake filling evenly over the cake, leaving a small border around the edges.
8️⃣ Roll the Cake Again:
Starting from the same end as before, carefully roll the cake back up, gently peeling away the parchment paper as you roll. Place seam side down on a serving platter.
9️⃣ Make the Pumpkin Spice Buttercream:
In a bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, pumpkin puree, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. Beat until smooth and fluffy.
🔟 Frost the Cake:
Frost the rolled cake with the pumpkin spice buttercream, covering the top and sides evenly.
1️⃣1️⃣ Chill and Serve:
Cover the cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to set.
Before serving, dust with additional powdered sugar and sprinkle with cinnamon if desired. Slice and serve chilled.
