Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 1 hour

Ingredients:

  • 8 oz. cream cheese
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar, divided
  • 1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 3/4 cup firmly-packed light brown sugar
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/3 cup buttermilk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp. nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp. cloves

Preparation:
