Ingredients:
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup canola oil
2 large eggs, room temperature
1 cup canned pumpkins
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon pumpkins pie spice
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
FROSTING:
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
6 tablespoons butter, softened
2 cups confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, beat together brown sugar and oil until combined, 1-2 minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time, until fluffy, 2-3 minutes. Beat in pumpkin and vanilla extract.

In a separate large bowl, whisk together flour, pumpkin spice, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Gradually add dry ingredients to pumpkin batter; mix until combined, 1-2 minutes.

Transfer batter into a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 25-30 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, beat cream cheese and butter on medium speed until smooth, 3-4 minutes. Reduce mixer speed to low; slowly beat in confectioners' sugar, then vanilla extract until fluffy, 2-3 minutes. Spread cream cheese frosting over cooled cake.
