Pumpkin Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting

Find the original post here.

The recipe is basic and easy:

Pumpkin Cake

  • 1 box yellow or white cake mix
  • 1 c. canned pumpkin (not the pie filling, just the plain pumpkin!)
  • 1/2 c. sour cream or plain yogurt

Mix it all together.  Pour it into a greased cake pan. Bake according to the box’s instructions.

Cream Cheese Frosting

  • 8 oz. package of non-fat cream cheese
  • 1 (ish) c. confectioner’s sugar (I just sort of dumped a heap of it into the bowl and mixed away. Adjust the amount to your taste.)
  • 1 t. vanilla extract

Mix it all together.  Once the cake has cooled, spread the frosting evenly over the top.
