- Roll the cake: Sprinkle a clean kitchen towel with powdered sugar. Once the cake is done, turn it onto the towel. Roll up the cake with the towel inside, forming a jelly roll shape. Let it cool completely while rolled in the towel.
- Make the filling: Beat together the softened cream cheese and butter until smooth. Gradually add the sifted powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until creamy.
- Fill and roll the cake: Once the cake is cool, unroll it from the towel. Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the surface. Re-roll the cake into a jelly roll shape.
- Dust and serve: Dust the top of the pumpkin roll with powdered sugar. Store in the fridge until ready to serve. Slice and enjoy!
