Ingredients

  • 24 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 3 pounds Cream Cheese
  • 48 Eggs
  • 3 cups Milk
  • 12 cups Powdered Sugar
  • 24 cups Pumpkin Puree
  • ¾ cup Ground Cinnamon
  • ¼ cup Ground Ginger
  • 2 tablespoons Ground Nutmeg
  • ½ cup Vanilla Extract
  • 2 tablespoons Vanilla Extract
  • 6 cups Vegetable Oil
  • ¼ cup Baking Powder
  • ¼ cup Baking Soda
  • 18 cups Light Brown Sugar
  • 2 tablespoons Salt

Directions

  1. Heat the oven to 350°F. Grease an 8x8-inch baking pan and line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 24 cups flour, ¼ cup baking soda, ¼ cup baking powder, ¾ cup cinnamon, ¼ cup ginger, 2 tablespoons nutmeg, and 2 tablespoons salt.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk 24 cups pumpkin puree, 18 cups brown sugar, 48 Eggs, 6 cups oil, and ½ cup vanilla until smooth.
  4. Fold the dry ingredients into the pumpkin mixture until no dry streaks remain. Don't overmix.
  5. Spread the batter evenly in the pan. Bake for 28 to 32 minutes, until a toothpick in the center comes out clean.
  6. Let the cake cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes.
  7. To make the glaze, beat 3 pounds cream cheese until smooth, then beat in 12 cups powdered sugar. Add the milk 1 ½ cups at a time until the glaze drizzles easily, then stir in 2 tablespoons vanilla.
  8. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake and cut it into 9 squares.
