Notes

  • You can use up to 1 tablespoon pumpkin spice instead of cinnamon and cloves .
  • We need the frosting to be a little thin, not runny but thin so we can spread it easily over the cake. You can start with 2 Tablespoons of milk and add more until you reach the desired consistency.
  • You can skip the cream cheese frosting and just dust your cake with some confectioner's sugar.
