Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9×9 inch pan with parchment paper and spray lightly with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
In a large bowl whisk together flour, sugar, ground ginger, baking soda, baking powder, salt, ground cloves, and cinnamon. Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
In the bowl of a stand mixer combine the eggs, vanilla, oil, and pumpkin on medium speed until light and fluffy. Stir gently, just until combined.
Pour into a pan and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Transfer to a wire rack and allow to cool completely.
When completely cooled, frost.
Combine the cream cheese and butter in a medium bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. Add the sugar and mix at low speed until combined. Stir in the vanilla and mix again.
You may need to add a little milk to make it spreadable if your butter wasn’t soft enough.
Spread frosting evenly on top of the cake. Cut the bar into any size you like.
