Pumpkin Roulade

I usually serve mine with sage ice cream and a merlot cranberry compote.

3 eggs
1 cup sugar
3/4 cups AP flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
2/3 cup pumpkin puree
2 1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ginger
1/2 tsp nutmeg
pinch salt
1 tsp lemon juice

Sift together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, salt, and nutmeg. Whip eggs and sugar until ribbon stage. Mix in lemon juice and pumpkin. Slowly mix in flour mixture. Spread onto a parchment (spray with cooking sray) lined sheet pan. Bake 350 F until cake tester comes out clean. Set aside to cool.

Filling:
1 lb cream cheese, room temp
1/4 cup powdered sugar (more if you like a sweeter filling)
1/2 cup heavy cream

Whip all ingredients together untill creamy and fluffy. Dried cranberries (yummy) or nuts may be added to filling. Spread filling evenly onto cooled cake. Roll.
