One of the ladies I used to work with, Barb R., would bring in a tray of these wonderful pumpkin squares. They are moist, with just the right amount of sweetness, and the frosting just “seals the deal”.
Pumpkin Torte

Pumpkin Cream Cheese Roll-Up
It’s been years since I came across this recipe. It’s a pumpkin cake with a creamy cheese filling, sprinkled with walnuts and rolled into a log shape. Not only is it impressive… it is absolutely delicious!
