A rich and wonderfully moist cake, and yet delightfully healthy (minus the ganache :) ). The best part? It's so easy!!, yet looks so professional.The pumpkin doesn't factor in much flavor but gives richness and makes the cake soft and oh so melt-in-your-mouth. Feel free to adjust spices as needed, I'm a cinnamon fiend, or top with your favorite frosting (or even omit it for a breakfast cake).
