Ingredients

Frosting

  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 (8 ounce) package Neufchatel cheese, softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Cake

  • 1 (15.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup water
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9-inch cake pans.

Step 2
Combine cake mix, pumpkin puree, water, eggs, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger in a bowl; beat with an electric mixer until well incorporated. Pour batter into the prepared cake pans.

Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Invert carefully onto a serving plate or cooling rack. Let cool, about 30 minutes.

Step 4
Meanwhile, combine powdered sugar, butter, Neufchatel cheese, vanilla extract, and cinnamon in a bowl; beat with a hand mixer until smooth. Fill and frost the cooled cake.
