Pumpkin & Cream Cheese Rollups

I made this for my family and it immediately disappeared. Absolutely yummy it would be a great item to take to a bazaar or bring a dish dinner. You'll really stand out with this one. On the downside, I sprinkled confectioner's suger on the top and it "melted into" the cake when left overnight, so put the sugar on at the very last moment if you want it to look fresh. It didn't change the way the cake tasted, though.
