Pumpkin Spice Cake with Cinnamon Icing and Walnuts

I've made it in both a glass pyrex 9x9 (doubled recipe) and in sandwich tins.  Sandwich tins had the better texture (metal is better for this one), but I would think it would be fine in a loaf, round, or sheet, whatever tickles your fancy (and size will be dicated by shape). 

same here!!!

did you go to the shirley one? we looked in the canned fruit and the baking aisles, but no dice.

i'm making a trip to selfridges next week--that's where i found it last year.

I was at the Harborne High Street one.  I think I'll also make a trip to Selfridges.

It's starting to get chilly here in Chicago and I can't think of a better cake to make on a fall day.  I will have to try this one.  Thanks.

MTA-I wonder if I could substitute apples in this recipe?  Or, is it just for pumpkin?

I haven't been able to figure out how to add recipes to the cookbook.

mmmmmmmmmmmm pumpkin drool drool

Not sure, but I think apples have a slightly different water content than pureed pumpkin, so that might affect the outcome.  Maybe experiment with applesauce and diced apple?  I'm all about science

I'm all for experimenting with food.  Thanks!  I didn't know you guys were so passionate about pumpkin.
