This was my first roll up cake and it turned out really well. No cracks or tears. Very tasty and I would probably make it again. Quite easy

Have always been nervous to make a pumpkin roll, just not sure how the whole rolling the cake up in a towel really works. After watching the video that goes along with this recipe, I felt confident to give it a try! It was easy! I followed the recipe as is and it worked beautifully! I put this in the teachers lounge and it was gone before 8 a.m. I have already had requests to make another one. One co-worker asked me where I bought it...

My wife and I have made this so many times I can't count. This is to die for, the taste of the pumpkin and pecan's fit just right. I will always make the pumpkin/pecan roll any time of the year.

Great recipe. I didn't use the nuts and it was great. I will use nuts next time just to see, but it was delicious without. The cream cheese filling was the best I ever made. The cake was very moist.

This is great!! Quick and easy. 15 minutes might be a little long. When I was rolling it the first time to let it cool, I felt like it was gonna crack. Thankfully it didn't. I will adjust the baking time next time. Great desert for holiday seasons!! Will definitely make it again. Hopefully it will be as pretty as the one on the picture.

This is an easy yet impressive looking dessert. I mixed all my wet ingredients first to avoid overmixing later. The flavour is good although next time I would use fresh nutmeg to bring out that flavour a bit more. This was better after sitting in the fridge for a couple of days.

I have never made a pumpkin roll, so my daughter and I decided to give this a try. It was easy to make and has a wonderful presentation. My family loved it! I made 4 of them. It will be a family favorite from now on.

Very tasty cake. I think I cooked a little longer because it cracked when I rolled. It seems many of us experienced this cracking. Roll cake itself was not too sweet, which I liked it, but the frosting was kind of too sweet to my taste. I would use a whole pack of cream cheese with a half cup of confectioners' sugar next time.

My whole family loved this recipe. I'm not fond of pumpkin so I used pupkin pie filling for a milder flavor and it turned out great. I've made this three times now and only had trouble with it cracking (nothing that couldn't be hidden) once and I think it's because I cooked that one slightly longer. The others rolled up perfectly, taking them out while they still had a very moist feel to them rather than "bounce". Thanks for sharing, I will be adding this one to my family must haves.

This pumpkin roll recipe appealed to me above the others because of all the yummy spices and nuts. If I'm going to bake something I want it to be good! This definitely was. The flavor was excellent; reminiscent of a carrot cake, but with a smoother texture. I overbaked this a bit, so it began to crack when I rolled it up. I salvaged it by cutting the cake into three 5" sections, spreading each one with a layer of the filling (I only needed about half the recipe), and stacking them. It ended up looking more like a torte. I drizzled the top with melted white chocolate and added some whole pecans. You'd never guess that it wasn't supposed to look that way. This recipe looks like you've spent a ton of time cooking, but you really haven't. Especially nice since you can make it the night before. Definitely a keeper for the autumn dessert season.

I tried the version of this in the Halloween 07 download for this site. Same recipe with a full cup of pumpkin puree and only one package of cream cheese. My husband loved it and brought some to work where his coworkers fough over the last piece. It's a bit sweet of my taste and I lost quite a bit of frosting rolling it. Maybe next time I will only use 1/2 cup confectioners sugar with one package of cream cheese and only frost the first 3/4-4/5 of the roll leting the oozing frosting push it's way to the bottom.

I look forward to making pumpkin rolls every fall. The pecans we're a wonderful addition. I would use fifty percent more, if not double the amount of frosting called for in this recipe.

I made this for a group of Texas friends and it was a hit. I think it was the pecans that did it. I used a little bit too much filling, so it was a kinda hard to roll up but that is because it was my first time. This was so good that we finished it before the camera could come out. Maybe next time I'll get a picture. Thank You for the great recipe.

Make this for Thanksgiving & was a big hit. Made it the night before & refrigerated. Turned out great & was easier to prepare than I expected. I think this will be a regular each year at Thanksgiving!
