Ingredients:
| Quantity | Ingredient |

| 2 | cups sugar |
| 4 | eggs |
| 1 | cup flour |
| 2 | teaspoons baking soda |
| 2 | teaspoons cinnamon |
| 2 | teaspoons salt |
| 1/2 | cup Libby’s canned pumpkin |
| 2 | packages cream cheese |
| 1 | cup margarine |
| 1/4 – 1/2 | cup powdered sugar |
| 1 | teaspoon vanilla |
Instructions:
-
Preparation: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch tube pan generously.
-
Mixing the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, beat together the sugar and eggs until light and well blended. Gradually add the oil while continuing to beat the mixture.
-
Incorporating Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the egg mixture, blending until well incorporated.
-
Adding Pumpkin: Stir in the Libby’s canned pumpkin until thoroughly mixed into the batter.
-
Baking: Pour the batter into the prepared tube pan and spread it evenly. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Cooling: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Decorating: Optionally, tint the icing a very light orange color and spread it over the cooled cake. For an extra touch of elegance, top the icing with delicate curls of shaved sweet baking chocolate.
-
Serving: Slice the Cinderella Cake and serve it to your delighted guests, savoring every magical bite!
