Bake for 15 minutes - Test for doneness with a toothpick - Insert it into the cake, if it comes out clean, you're ready to move on. Lay your towel (or parchment paper) out on your work surface pick up the cake leaving the parchment paper under it. Start rolling the towel up in a tight roll, and onto the edge of the pumpkin cake. Keep rolling until the pumpkin cake is completely rolled up into the towel.

Let set to cool completely. Make your filling while it cools. Mix the powdered sugar, cream cheese, butter and vanilla until smooth. When the cake roll has cooled, unroll and add the filling mixture.

Smooth it out all the way across the cake. Now, roll the cake up, peeling the waxed paper and towel away from the outside as you slowly roll it up into a tight roll. Place it down on waxed paper that has been sprinkled with powdered sugar. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, and serve!
