Cinnamon Roll Pumpkin Vanilla Sheet Cake


This time of year, I’m all about baking! Whether I’m making something for my family or to take a neighbor, I just love a cozy day at home baking a tasty treat!  Since it’s November, and we’re all about pumpkin treats, I thought I would share one of my favorite.  It’s simple to make and it’s a crowd pleaser!  The secret ingredient is a cake mix….but don’t let knowing that fool you!  It’s gooey and tastes just like pumpkin cinnamon rolls as a cake!  And personally, I love it cold!
