Pumpkin Cake
Ingredients
3 ½ cups self-rising flour
2 ½ cups brown sugar
4 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
1 (16 ounce) can pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon all spice
1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Method
In a large bowl combine flour, sugar and spices.
In a separate bowl combine beaten eggs, vegetable oil and pumpkin purée. Mix well.
Add pumpkin mixture to flour mixture. Mix well.
Fold in chopped walnuts (if using).
Place in a lightly greased pumpkin shaped baking tin. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for approximately 25 minutes or until golden and baked through.
Decorate with orange frosting, candy corn, and liquorish to form a pumpkin face.
Tip: If you don’t have a pumpkin-shaped baking tin, you can use a regular tin and decorate as a pumpkin for a similar effect.
