Pumpkin Latte Loaf




The pumpkin cake with the most perfect coffee frosting will be a dessert you will want to make for all holiday gatherings ! It’s moist and dreamy and addictive and super easy to make.


I start off with a box yellow cake mix , don’t roll your eyes at me ! You want to spend the least amount of time in the kitchen whilst entertaining !


Here is what you will need:

  • 1 Yellow Cake mix

  • 3 large eggs

  • 1 15 oz can of Pumpkin Purée

  • 1 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla extract

  • 1 teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice

  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts



For the frosting :

  • 4 oz Cream Cheese

  • 4 tablespoons Butter

  • 1 teaspoon Instant Coffee mixed in a tablespoon of boiling water

  • 1 cup Powdered Sugar


Notes:

•You can double the frosting recipe if you like more frosting or are making a layered cake .

•You can make the cake up to three days ahead of time and frosting up to two days .



Directions:

  • Preheat oven to 350° F .

  • Grease and line a baking pan with parchment paper . I used a 9 by 5 loaf pan but you can use any size you like , and bake it according to box cake mix directions.

  • In a large mixing bowl , add cake mix , eggs, vanilla extract , pumpkin purée and chopped pecans and the pumpkin pie spice . Give it a good mix with a handheld mixer or you can also use a stand mixer .Don’t over mix the batter.

  • Transfer to a baking pan and bake . Mine took 55 minutes to bake . If you’re using a round cake pan, it may take a little less time to bake . If you’re using two pans to make a layered cake , start by timing it for 20 minutes .Insert a toothpick in the middle to check for doneness. If it comes out clean then your cake is done . Let your cakes cool in pan for five minutes then carefully flip on cooling rack .


For frosting:

  • Add room temperature cream cheese and butter and beat on high speed until light and fluffy .

  • Add cooled coffee mixture and beat again , now add powdered sugar and beat until mixture is light and fluffy.

  • Transfer to a piping bag (optional) . You can just use a spatula to spread frosting for a rustic cake .

  • Pipe on a completely cooled cake and sprinkle with some chopped pecan ! Enjoy !
