Ingredients

For cake:

For icing:

  • 4 ounces cream cheese room temperature
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste
  • 4 tablespoons heavy cream

Instructions

For cake:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and spray a 12-cup bundt pan with non-stick spray.
  • In a medium mixing bowl add flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together and set aside.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer add butter, sugar, and brown sugar. Mix together until blended. The mixture will be thick.
  • Add in Greek yogurt, eggs, and pumpkin puree. Mix to combine.
  • Slowly add in flour mixture until fully combined.
  • Fold in butterscotch chips and pour batter into the prepared pan.
  • Bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the middle of the cake.
  • Let the cake rest in the pan for 5 minutes and pop the cake out of the pan onto a wire cooling rack.
  • Once the cake is cooled cover in cream cheese glaze and devour.

For glaze:

  • In a mixer cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla bean paste, and 1 tablespoon of heavy cream.
  • Mix on low and add more cream until your reach your desired consistency. I like mine to be thick so it doesn't completely drip off. More of a frosting than a glaze.

Notes

  • You can use sour cream in place of Greek yogurt.
  • In place of butterscotch morsels, you could add in chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, or leave it plain.
  • If you don't have vanilla bean paste you can use vanilla extract.
