If you like spice cake, this is very good. Even if your family doesn't like Pumpkin, I promise they'll never know there's pumpkin in this delicious cake. Top with Cream Cheese Frosting if you like.

Pumpkin Spice Cake I

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups shortening 2 eggs, beaten 1 cup packed brown sugar 1 1/4 cups white sugar 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree 3 cups all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons baking soda 1 teaspoon salt 3 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger 1/2 cup chopped pecans

1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10 inch Bundt pan. Sift together the flour, baking soda, salt cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and ginger. Set aside.

I am not to much into spice cake or pumpkin cake, but I was looking for a good pumpkin spice cake to be able to offer to my customers, so I decided to try this one, and the results....AMAZING!!!! Even my husband, who does not have a sweet tooth, really liked it. I give it a thumbs up!!!

I'm looking for a good Thanksgiving cake and when I saw this recipe I got excited. I do have a couple of questions though. Does this recipe work as a layer cake? Would this be enough for two 9" pans?
