How to Make Pumpkin Spice Sheet Cake With Cream Cheese Frosting

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 15x10-inch jelly-roll pan.
  2. **Make the Cake:** In a large bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, ¾ cup packed light brown sugar, ½ cup vegetable oil, 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, and ½ teaspoon ground cloves.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the cake cool completely in the pan before frosting.
  8. **Make the Frosting:** In a large bowl, beat together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened, 8 ounces cream cheese, softened, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and ¼ cup heavy cream until light and fluffy.
  9. Gradually add 4 cups powdered sugar, beating until smooth and creamy. Add more powdered sugar or heavy cream as needed to reach your desired consistency.
  10. Once the cake is completely cool, frost it evenly with the cream cheese frosting.
