Pumpkin stars in both the soft, fluffy cake and the tangy pecan-cream cheese filling.

Many pumpkin roll cakes have the starring ingredient only in the cake, which is a missed opportunity to enjoy all the flavor, plus you end up with leftover canned puree sitting in your fridge. Here, the remaining pumpkin is whipped with cream cheese, pecans, and crystallized ginger for a tangy filling.
