Cook Book
My recipes that my mother and I have compiled together. I know it seems kind of dorky but it's very important to me. They really aren't "secret" recipes, so I feel no shame with sharing them with the people of Gaia.
Pumpkin Rolls
INGREDIENTS

* 3 eggs
* 1 cup white sugar
* 2/3 cup pumpkin
* 1 teaspoon lemon juice
* 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
* 1 teaspoon baking powder
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
* 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
* 1 cup chopped walnuts

* 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
* 2 tablespoons butter
* 1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and lightly grease a 10x15 inch jelly roll pan.

2. In a large bowl, beat eggs until fluffy. Beat in sugar until fluffiness resumes. Stir in pumpkin and lemon juice. In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg. Fold dry ingredients into pumpkin mixture. Spread in prepared pan; sprinkle with nuts.

3. Bake in preheated oven 15 minutes. Sprinkle a kitchen towel with confectioner's sugar. Turn cake out onto towel while still hot. Carefully roll cake in towel, long ends together, and let cool completely.

4. To Make Filling: In medium bowl, cream together cream cheese, butter and confectioners' sugar. Stir in vanilla.

5. Carefully unroll cooled cake and remove kitchen towel. Spread cake with filling and re-roll. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
