Spiced Pumpkin Cake with Eggnog Cream Cheese Frosting

Nothing sets the holidays off better than a delicious dessert!! When I tell you this dessert is delicious I mean it is DELICIOUS!!! This spiced pumpkin cake has the perfect blend of spices and is so moist it just melts in your mouth!

This three layers of deliciousness is also really good because it can be cut in small slices but still be enough to satisfy your guests. Or you can go crazy and cut it in big healthy chunks! Hey it’s the holidays so anything goes, right. lol

The cream cheese frosting adds the perfect touch to this cake. If you are not so good at cake decorating , a tip for using this cream cheese frosting is to move quickly. With the humidity being what it is especially in Bermuda, this frosting tends to melt quickly. So frost up and stick that cake back into the fridge. Take it out about 15-20 mins before you are ready to serve it.

ENJOY!!
