This is an excellent cake roll, just had trouble rolling it up, need a "how to" lesson. Like the other comment I too added extra cream cheese! umm yum. Defiantly worth mastering the roll!

Yummy if you like pumpkin rolls, although I think I would add about 1/2 the icing. Both my husband and I prefer less icing.

This was great! It split a little on top but not to bad. This was my first time making a roll. I will master it with no splits lol

My husband LOVES this! When he sees the canned pumpkin in the stores, he starts asking. It's a wonderful recipe!

I'm going to be making this for years to come. I'm a cream cheese fan and I used a whole 8 ounce package instead of 6 ounces and it was amazing. I had trouble keeping my brother out of it. Haha!

These look delicious! I have a question...a gal from my work used to sell these around Christmas time and I bought a lot from her for my family.Have also tried other folks Pumpkin rolls that are more cake like in texture. Our favorite are the rolls which are more dense, less light and airy. Which category do these fall in?

Thanks!
