Tammy's Review: 

This recipe was passed to me from my friend Sheri, who makes delicious pumpkin rolls! Joshua loves this when I make it, as the spicy pumpkin cake is "swirled" with a sweet cream cheese layer. I usually make two and freeze one for later. This is a delicious fancy-looking pumpkin dessert! My rating: 10/10

Easier than I thought!

I tend to overlook recipes like this, because I doubt my abilities to make 'pretty' foods.

This cake was totally delicious, and wasn't hard to make.

I cut my wax paper too long, and the overhang started smoking in the oven. Next time I'll trim the paper to the right size!!

Delicious!

I made this for Christmas last year and it was wonderful! It made a beautiful, fancy-looking platter of goodies.
