Pumpkin cake

[lostkat]

Well, I bought a pumpkin the size of Jupiter for Halloween and had to do something with all that bloody flesh. Someone at work gave me the free Asda Magazine which contained lots of recipes, including a pumpkin cake. It said it tasks like carrot cake, which I LOVE, so I thought I'd give it a go. End result? It's absolutely gorgeous and I heartily recommend it.

It is rather beefy. I only made it because I had a pumpkin excess. Need to offload it onto parents and work colleagues now as I'm supposed to be eating healthily :D

Well, people at work were very interested until I told them it was pumpkin cake. Then they wrinkled their noses up and shuffled off. So, I told the next few people it was carrot cake and it got nommed down. When I told them it was actually pumpkin cake, they said they thought it was nicer than carrot cake anyway. Tch!!! What's with all this pumpkin prejudice?

I've just made my fourth one of these and it's been absolutely nommed down by my work colleagues today! They love it!

The recepie's gone but I have it in my book now, muahaha! I've actually convinced people I'm good at baking!!

Personally, I think pumpkin is one of the most underrated vegetables. My aunt used to make a sweet pumpkin pie and it was amazing. So funny the way people turn their noses up at something when they think it'll taste funny :D
