My mom made this for me, and one bite can completely take me back to my childhood. You can easily convert it into a great carrot cake recipe: just use grated carrots in place of pumpkin and add raisins. —Melissa Pelkey Hass, Waleska, Georgia

Ingredients

4 large eggs, room temperature
2 cups sugar
1 cup canola oil
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1 can (15 ounces) pumpkin
1/2 cup chopped pecans
FROSTING:
1 cup butter, softened
3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
7-1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
2/3 to 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
Cinnamon sugar, optional

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°. Line bottoms of 2 greased 9-in. round pans with parchment; grease parchment.

Beat eggs, sugar and oil until well blended. In another bowl, whisk together flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, salt, ginger and allspice; gradually beat into egg mixture. Stir in pumpkin and pecans.
Transfer to prepared pans. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 25-30 minutes.
Cool in pans 10 minutes before removing to wire racks; remove parchment. Cool completely.
For frosting, beat butter, cinnamon and vanilla until creamy. Gradually beat in confectioners' sugar and enough cream to reach desired consistency.
Using a long serrated knife, cut each cake horizontally in half. Spread 3/4 cup frosting between layers; spread remaining frosting over top and sides of cake. If desired, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
