Pumpkin Roll Trifle......my Creation for a Show....yummo!!

[Lisa/ChefBear]

Hi all,
I was talking with a past hostess and we were trying to come up with a trifle that was "different" than the normal ones and I said to her, well I'd love to make a Pumpkin Roll one, but my pumpkin roll filling it WAY to thick. She said, well my filling isn't, it's really light.

So I made my pumpkin roll cake, in the large Bar Pan of course, used her filling and some caramel and pecans and it was a hit, not a scrap let, I barely got a taste.

Everyone said I should submit the recipe somewhere and have it published.

I wish I would have gotten a picture, guess I'll have to make another one.

Here's the recipe, sorrySorry guys, have been busy and forgot I didn't post recipe. I'm making this for the holidays every where we go and I've got to take a dish to pass.


Pumpkin Roll Trifle
Mom Frisbie's Orig. Recipe tweaked using Darlene's filling recipe.

For Cake:
3 Eggs
1 Cup Sugar

Beat for 5 Minutes (Be specific with time)

Add to above mixture:
2/3 Cup Pumpkin
1 tsp. Baking Soda
1 tsp. Cinnamon
1/8 to ¼ tsp. Pumpkin Spice
¾ Cup Flour

Mix Well.
Grease and line a Jelly Roll Pan with Waxed Paper, or parchment paper.* I just put into my Stoneware Lg. Bar Pan, very seasoned, so I don't have to worry about it, if it wasn't I'd use some Pan-Eze before putting in cake.

Spread cake evenly in pan and Bake at 375 for 15 minutes.

Let cake cool on cooling rack and loosen around edges.
Using Bread Knife (Serrated) we then cut it into Cubes.

Make Filling:
1 Cup Sugar
8 Oz Cream Cheese, softened
3 Cups Cool Whip – 8 Oz. Cool Whip

Take Cream Cheese and soften in Microwave in Classic Batter Bowl. Add other ingredients and mix together. Can be made ahead and chilled.

To assemble Trifle:
Take 1/3 of cake cubes and put into Trifle bowl.
Spread 1/3 of filling onto cake; drizzle with Caramel Ice Cream Topping
Sprinkle with Chopped Pecans (opt) - I left on side in Prep Bowl in case of allergies
and repeat until finished and top with Caramel topping.
You can also sprinkle with Sweet Cinnamon Sprinkles and/or Sweet Caramel Sprinkles.


It was so YUMMY!! We didn't have a huge turn out and she made 2 things ahead and we made a Bacon Ranch Ring (From Simple & Delicious, another yummo!) so there was allot to choose from and Trifle was GONE!!

Enjoy,

Lisa

This is rest of original recipe in case anyone wants it:

While cake is baking on counter top or cooling rack, place a tea towel and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
When you remove cake from oven, turn upside down on tea towel sprinkled with powdered sugar, Remove Pan and Waxed paper and roll and let cool, approx. 2 hours.

Filling:
1 pkg. (8 oz) cream cheese
4 TBLS. butter/margarine
1 Cup Powdered Sugar
1½ tsps. vanilla
Mix Well
Spread onto cooled cake, unroll, spread crm cheese mixture, re-roll and keep cool, can sprinkle with powdered sugar again to "look nice!

Could you post this recipe....I might try it for my January shows!!

 

[Lisa/ChefBear]

Bacon Ranch Ring......Here's that recipe. It was really good, we used half red and half green peppers due to Christmas. It was even good cold, I didn't get a piece until we were cleaning up after show and it was cold, but still yummy.

Bacon-Chicken Crescent Ring Simple & Delicious Nov./Dec. 2007


2 tubes (8 oz each) refrigerated crescent rolls
1 can (10 oz) chunk white chicken, drained and flaked
1 ½ cups (6 oz) shredded Swiss cheese
¾ cup mayonnaise
½ cup finely chopped sweet red pepper
¼ cup finely chopped onion
6 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
2 Tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 Tablespoon Italian salad dressing mix

Grease a 14 inch pizza pan. Unroll crescent roll dough; separate into 16 triangles. Place wide end of one triangle 3 inches from the edge of the prepared pan with the point overhanging the edge of pan. Repeat with remaining triangles along outer edge of pan, overlapping the wide ends (dough will look like a sun when complete). Lightly press wide ends together.
In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Spoon over wide ends of dough. Fold points of triangles over filling and tuck under wide ends (filling will be visible). Bake at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.


I didn't grease the stone. It was really great, I even had someone who doesn't like things "mixed" her words, have a second piece.
