Pumpkin Roll


This is one of my favorite desserts! I like to make it when I can pick up pumpkin on sale and when I have free cream cheese! My Mother-in-Law passed this recipe to me and always makes it for me for Christmas.  I love making it with my own homemade pumpkin puree too!  You can also make your own Homemade Whipped Cream Cheese Icing.
