How to cook deliciously - Pumpkin Layer Cake

1 . Stage

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 6-inch round springform pans.

2 . Stage

Combine sugar, oil, and eggs in a large mixing bowl and mix well.

3 . Stage

Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, cloves, and ginger into a separate bowl; stir into sugar mixture. Stir in pumpkin until well blended. Pour batter evenly into the prepared pans.

4 . Stage

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of each cake layer comes out clean, 45 to 55 minutes. Turn out onto wire racks to cool completely, about 30 minutes.

5 . Stage

Cut rounded tops off of cooled cakes with a large, serrated bread knife so they are flat and even.

6 . Stage

Combine powdered sugar, cream cheese, butter, and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl. Whip until there are absolutely no lumps; this may take up to 5 minutes. Set aside.

7 . Stage

Place 1 tier of cake onto a serving plate. Frost the top liberally; place second tier on top. Generously frost the entire cake. Stick almonds gently by the handful onto the sides of the cake.
