Homemade Pumpkin Roll is a delicious treat that my family loves to indulge in on the holidays. Pumpkin Roll is a dessert that I absolutely love and eat way too much of. But when the holidays are here I just can't help myself. It does take time to make this Homemade Pumpkin Roll, but it is so worth it in the end.
I love to make 3 or 4 rolls at a time so that I can hand out some to my neighbors, friends or the boy's teachers at Christmas time. With each roll I can cut it into 4 sections for four different neighbors and friends. Our neighbors enjoy receiving their Homemade Pumpkin Roll every year.
