Very moist pumpkin spice cake.  First tried for Thankgiving Dinner, 2007<\/em><\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/strong>:
3 c flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tbsp ground cinnamon
\u00bc  tsp ground clove
1\u00be  tsp ground allspice
1 tsp salt
\u00bd  tsp ground nutmeg
—
1\u00bd  c sugar
1 c (packed) golden brown sugar
1 c butter (melted)
—
5 large eggs (at altitutde; 4 at sea level)
29 oz. pumpkin
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp grated orange peel
\u00be c raisins (optional)
\u00be c sweetened flaked coconut, plus extra for garnish (optional)<\/p>\n

Instructions<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Preheat oven to 350F.<\/li>\n
  2. Butter a 9×13 pan.<\/li>\n
  3. Sift flour and spices into a medium bowl.<\/li>\n
  4. Beat both sugars and oil into a large bowl until combined into a grainy mixture.<\/li>\n
  5. Add eggs one at a time, beating until well blended after each addition.<\/li>\n
  6. Add pumpkin, vanilla, orange peel, and beat until well blended.<\/li>\n
  7. Add flour mixture, and beat until just incorporated.<\/li>\n
  8. (Optional) Stir in raisins and coconut.<\/li>\n
  9. Pour into pan; bake for about 1 hour (when tester inserted into center comes out clean).<\/li>\n
  10. After cool, top with a frosting<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    This cake comes out incredibly moist — it almost seams undercooked, but it’s not.  It can be made a day ahead of time, covered and refrigerated; let stand at room temp an hour before serving.<\/em><\/p>\n

    Variations<\/strong>:  This recipe is originally designed as a layer cake — using 15 oz. of pumpkin, and putting into two 9″ cake pans.  Originally set to use 2 tsp ginger instead of cloves, and canola oil instead of butter.<\/p>\n
