Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • Dash salt
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2/3 cup pumpkin
  • Confectioners' sugar
  • 1 quart butter pecan ice cream, softened
  • Whipped cream, optional
  • Toasted chopped pecans, optional

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, combine flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder and salt. In a bowl, beat eggs at high speed for 5 minutes or until pale yellow. Gradually beat in sugar. Stir in pumpkin. Fold in dry ingredients. Line a 15x10x1-in. baking pan with greased and floured waxed paper. Pour batter into pan; bake at 375° for 15 minutes.
