RALEIGH, N.C. (WTVD) -- With Thanksgiving next week, I thought we'd make something pumpkin-ish. My mom recently sent me some of her recipes and I decided to make my first pumpkin roll. I switched the frosting out with a sweeter frosting but I'll put both down below and you can decide what you want. Let's get to it!

I won't lie, it's kind of a complicated dish, but it really turned out great. The frosting I made was super sweet, so you might like the bite of the cream cheese frosting, that's why I included both. You do you. BTW, the Holland Frosting I made is great form filling on other desserts too. I hope you have a great Thanksgiving and please send me recipes of what was on your table!
