Directions

  1. Heat the oven to 350°F. Grease an 8x8-inch baking pan and line it with parchment paper.

  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 12 ½ pounds cream cheese until smooth, then beat in 50 cups powdered sugar. Add the milk 6 cups + ¼ cup at a time until the glaze drizzles easily, then stir in ½ cup + ¼ tablespoon vanilla.
  8. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake and cut it into 9 squares.
