I loved it so much that I wanted to make it year round. Using the the basic recipe except substituting banana for the pumpkin and vanilla for the pumpkin cake spices. The only other modification was to slightly increase the amount of flour because the banana is not as solid as the pumpkin. Everything else was identical. Both version are insatiable, my kids keep asking for it. :

Don't get me wrong I love pumpkin pie, but its kinda boring!!! This is a great take on holiday dessert but non-traditional and makes you happy inside!!! It takes a little bit of work but its worth it!!

I made 2 of these for Thanksgiving-one to bring to my relatives and one to keep. I got so many compliments and requests to make this again. My boyfriend liked it so much that he asked me to make one for his birthday a couple of weeks later. It was really simple to make-I used a disposable aluminum cookie sheet for one of them and a cookie sheet for the other. Both came out great. I also used a dinner napkin instead of a kitchen towel to roll then in after baking because the napkin was the perfect size and has no pattern. Since it is not as porous, it also peeled off easier than the kitchen towel when cooled. I also used parchment paper instead of waxed paper the 2nd time and that worked well. The thought of wax on the cake from the waxed paper...yuk. I forgot to add the nuts but I didn't even miss them. The cake does not have a really strong pumpkin taste- it is just delicious. Very "fancy" looking presentation, too. I would wait until right before serving it to take it out of the frig, slice up the log, sugar it with the powdered sugar, stagger the slices on a serving platter and listen to the raves!

This is a wonderful dessert for the holidays. My family is not big on pumpkin anything, but when they tried this, they became fans! I substituted the toffee for pecans.

This was my first time with any kind of rolling cake, and the details you gave were perfect.

I am a star, and bringing a star dessert to Thanksgiving dinner.

Thank you.

I think that Paula made the best cake. I loved how she made it and how she
put the cak together step by step. I love watching her show all the time.
I love when she has her son Jamie and her grandson Jack on the
show.


Sincerely yours,
Annette Kaplan

I make this recipe every year by family's request. I follow the cake recipe as she states and it always comes out perfect. For the filling, I use her cream cheese frosting recipe for her pumpkin bar recipe so that I can freeze these. These have become a tradition in my family!

I make pumpkin roll every year for all of my family. Its always a big hit. This recipe has way to many eggs you only need 1. I make a cream cheese filling that is to die for. I will stick to my own recipe for sure...

I liked the idea behind this recipe but it wasnt as good as I thought it would be. My family is pumpkinholics so we love all things pumpkin and it just didn't do it for us. We love Paulas Gooey Pumpkin Cakes now those are some good eats right there.

I followed the recipe exactly, it was complicated and not worth the effort. The cake part was good and very flavorful but the filling was way too sweet. With the caramel topping, the toffee, and the whipping cream it was like taking a giant bite of sugar.
