Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter softened (2 sticks)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 Tbsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup pure pumpkin puree i.e. Libby's
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk (Not evaporated milk)
  • 1 batch Bourbon Pecan Praline Sauce
  • 2 cups whipped cream

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter and flour a 9-inch springform pan or spray liberally with baking spray. Set aside.
  • Using an electric mixer cream together the butter, both sugars and vanilla extract. Beat for 2 minutes on medium-high speed stopping to scrape the sides of the bowl periodically until fluffy and light beige in color.
  • Add the pumpkin beating until incorporated..
  • Add the eggs one at a time beating well after each addition.
  • In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder and salt.
  • Lower the speed of the mixer and add the sifted dry ingredients alternately with the sweetened condensed milk beginning and ending with flour.
  • After all has been added beat for about 30-45 seconds.Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl.
  • Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bounce gently to release trapped air.
  • Place into the oven and bake for 60-70 minutes (1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes) or until a toothpick inserted into the center shows moist crumbs. Do not over bake. Check at 45 minutes and lay a piece of aluminum foil on top to prevent over browning, if needed.
  • Cool in the pan for 10 minutes then remove the outer ring. Cool to room temperature on a cooling rack.
  • Serve drizzled with
    Bourbon Pecan Praline Sauce and whipped cream, if desired.

Notes

To prevent batter escaping from the springform pan, cover the bottom and 1-inch up the sides of the pan with aluminum foil.
