Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 13x17 inch jellyroll pan with parchment paper.
  2. Dust a clean tea towel with powdered sugar and set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice blend, and salt.
  4. Beat the eggs and granulated sugar together in a large bowl until pale and thick, about 3-4 minutes. Mix in the pumpkin puree and vanilla extract.
  5. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture gently, being careful not to overmix.
  6. Spread the batter into your prepared pan and bake for 14-15 minutes until set.
  7. Invert the cake onto the powdered sugar-dusted towel and roll it up while warm. Let cool completely.
  8. Beat the cream cheese and unsalted butter until smooth. Mix in vanilla and powdered sugar until fluffy.
  9. Unroll the cooled cake, spread the cream cheese filling, and re-roll it without the towel. Chill for at least 1 hour.
  10. Slice the cake into pieces, optionally dusting with powdered sugar before serving.
