Fall has arrived, bringing with it pumpkin season, and it's the perfect time to try recipes made with this ingredient. I discovered this cake recipe a while ago and simply loved it. It's fluffy, moist, and perfectly sweet, plus it's super easy to make. You can bake it in individual cake molds or a large pan to slice. I hope you try it and fall in love with it as much as I did!
