Cinnamon Roll Pumpkin Sheet Cake

This Cinnamon Roll Pumpkin Sheet Cake is going to knock your socks off! Swirls of cinnamon and vanilla glaze. . .it’s absolutely incredible! It’s the perfect holiday dessert.

I’m just going to start off my telling you that this Cinnamon Roll Pumpkin Sheet Cake is extremely dangerous to have around.  I posted this recipe about seven years ago and decided I needed to bring it back into the spotlight.

If you are a pumpkin lover like me, it would be so easy to eat the entire pan because this cake is so good. Even if you’re not a pumpkin lover, this cake could easily convert you.

This cake starts with a basic yellow cake mix but quickly and easily turns into the most amazing pumpkin-y cake with swirls of a buttery cinnamon mixture throughout topped with a delicious vanilla glaze. It’s honestly divine!

It melts in your mouth. I’m a little embarrassed to admit it, but I probably would have and could have eaten the pan in its entirety had it not been for the fact that I took about 2/3 of it to neighbors.  Lucky them!  

If you love pumpkin, but aren’t a huge fan of pumpkin pie like some people I know, then you’ve got to make this cake for Thanksgiving. It’s a nice change and I think you will be hard pressed to find someone who doesn’t like it.

HOW TO CINNAMON ROLL PUMPKIN SHEET CAKE:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray a large cookie sheet with non stick cooking spray.
  2. Using an electric or hand mixer, mix cake mix, eggs, oil, milk, pudding, sour cream and pumpkin mixing until well combined, about 1 1/2 minutes. Pour into prepared pan, and spread evenly.
  3. Place butter into a microwave safe bowl and melt, about 30-40 seconds. Add brown sugar and cinnamon to bowl, mixing until combined. Drizzle mixture evenly over cake then take a knife and run it through to swirl.
  4. Bake cake for 30-35 minutes, until cooked through and remove. In a small bowl, mix powdered sugar, melted butter, vanilla and cream into a large bowl and mix until creamy and smooth. Drizzle over warm cake then let cool for 20-25 minutes before cutting into squares. Refrigerate any leftovers.

This is such a simple dessert to make! I also love that it makes a lot, so it’s the perfect thing to take to family parties, potlucks or holiday dinners.

      Depending on the brand of the cookie sheet, it’s usually 12×17 or 18×13. It’s also called a half sheet pan.
